Step-by-Step Process
- Cut the cane webbing slightly larger than the target opening.
- Soak the webbing according to workshop practice so it becomes more workable.
- Position the panel carefully, keeping the pattern square and centered.
- Secure the material into the groove or fixing system and smooth tension evenly.
- Allow the panel to dry fully so it tightens into place before trimming excess material.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
