I checked at a carpet store and they used a staple gun and a 2"x2" piece of wood.
Nice rug too.
How to hang rugs.
Hey guys,
I will be moving soon and will have a dedicated room. I have a fairly nice rug, i beleive its about 10'X6' and is kind of heavy. I was wondering if any of you tweakers have a good way of hanging rugs. Im most concerned with the rug stretching at the point loads if i only hang it with a few mounting points. But im also concerned with crushing the edge if i used say two 2x4s clamped together with the rug in between to disperse the load evenly. i have a few other thoughts in my hopper but was wondering what you guys did. Another question: on which wall would it produce the most benefit front or rear? my speakers have a rear firing tweeter just to let you know. I havent heard the room yet so it may not be necessary but it did fail the clap test. im guessing the rear of my speakers will be about 30" or so from the wall. thanks Justin
