Another tip! The wire that comes annoyingly interwoven throughout the roll...use it to "weave" shut the gaps between to runs of it. It's like sewing with wire! I thought it was resourceful, but it is time consuming. Zip ties work great too like was suggested. I've been too stubborn to break them...
I'm on my third roll of 1" 20 gauge. I would have cursed at it outloud, but I have small children. It is wonky, unwieldy and wacky stuff. Rubber dipped gloves and a staple gun. I will temp. clip it somewhere as I work to keep it from springing back in my face, and reset when I get ahead to that...
