Hello Everyone - I'm curious as to those that still use wire (I use supersoft strand, how tightly do you stretch the wire between the hardware? Or what angle do you strive for? With the plastic wrapped wire, I've found it difficult to consistently have the wire come up at the same point due to some stretching of the wire. On individual jobs this doesn't matter but for multiple jobs that will be hung at the same height it does create problems.
On a recent large job, I stretched the wire tight between the hangers which seemed to work better and used wall dogs (United Manuf.) to hang the pieces. I haven't tried wall buddies yet, but may purchase a few to try out.
Any thoughts from the more experienced framers? I recently joined as an official member but have been lurking for the past few weeks and have found the forum to be rather educational and entertaining. When I get a moment, I'll post a bio. Thanks!
