S Mesh real life tensions

@Zoo - You are so right. That's why it is so important to have your meter calibrated regularly. It's a $50 expense on ours that saves you 5-10 panels a year easily. I know Stretch is a bit more, but even calibrating one of those is a deal compared to blowing out $200 in mesh because of a bad meter reading.

alan802:
I just measured a few more s thread screens and found one of our 110s at 34 newtons.  2 of our 150's were at 28 and 2 were at 30.  The EZ frames with 150 s thread were all dead on at 25 newtons.  I may be wrong on this, but it seems like the s thread stabilizes faster and remains much closer to the original tension than any other mesh I've used.  That is such a great benefit when using the EZ frames.
