    Double sided carpet tape works...

    I found some double sided carpet tape at Harbor Freight to re-attach my shrunken leader, lol.  My old one must have been attached with a thick glue of some sort.  I started to scrape it but it was not going to come off.  I did try a little bit of acetone but it was difficult to let it soak in and didn't seem to affect it anyway. So I just left it because I didn't want to make a mess with chemicals/solvents and scrape up my bars.   I did follow the weld line to lay the tape.  It does hold the canvas very well. 

    The tape is: Roberts Max Tape, 1-7/8" x 75'

  2. I need new leaders.  My old ones that were on my APQS Ultimate 1 frame when I bought it need to go. Should I go with the canvas ones that are on it or is there another type that can be used that I may like better? I knew the canvas would shrink when I tried doing one leader but it realllly shrank length wise. Now I must do something. I am new at this and want to start learning the process.
