Has anyone had any experience using this old-school method for hanging leaves in a flue kiln?
I have been looking at this ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbPhzCIxiv8
and thinking that, by hanging just two large leaves per 'set', I might get plenty of circulating air-space around each. (On the video I think they are tying three per set, and quite close, at that).
As I've got a reasonably large quantity to process I'm considering that this time-tested method might be the most practical.
However, I'm somewhat concerned that as a learner-looper I might not get the tension right and as the stem shrinks the string might fail to hold the leaves onto the poles.
Has anyone tried this? And just how successful was it? Or, is there just a plainly better method?
Thanks
