Subject:new canvas question
From:Dart 330

I purchased a new canvas a few weeks ago and the weather was finally nice
enough to install it. When I went to attach the new one to the top, which is
upside down on the ground, it does not have a beaded edge like the old one.
It has the rubber on the bottom side, but the top side is simply the fabric
folded over and sewn shut with no cord inside. The old one has a cord that
fits in the groove and is held on by the metal strips with screws. I am
afraid without this cord the canvas will pull out and the screws will tear
through the canvas. Has anyone else had this problem? Do the new ones simply
not have this cord inside? Or do I need to send it back?

Thanks,
Nathan
