I'd prefer sharp edges poking at me (of course, I could put duct tape on the ends LOL, and the sides don't have sharp edges) than being encased in duct tape.
I remember those, and that's why I thought I would prefer chicken wire.

Sandi, the only one I recall like this was about someone who used a boardy paper like the stuff they wrap baked goods in at a bakery. I can't think of her name, but the woman who wrote this was an acquaintance who taught sewing in Dayton, and who also made horse show clothing (for both horse and rider). I don't recall there being anything about chicken wire in this article, though, so it might not be the same.
I can't imagine chicken wire working, either. It's so porous!

They did wrap the chicken wire double with *something* after the forming.
