Outside surrounded by large cardboard boxes from Amazon which contained large canvases.....The entire structure has several coats of nitrate dope on it and is quite smooth enough but I want this one covered. Dip the silkspan in the water, lay it on the towel, wipe it slightly to remove excess water, lay it down, smooth it out, and paint dope all over it. Absolutely guaranteed not to deform the wood! :-)

I used to lay the silkspan in the sink and use a damp sponge to get it damp. Covering with wet tissue always gave good results.

And it's really a quick and easy method. Like Chinese food, the work is all in the prepping. Cooking, or covering, takes only minutes.
