Jeff,

I second Ancient dudes comment about going around a sharp corner. you need as big of a radius as you can make.
I've never had an expensive gun so haven't seen one where you can adjust tension.

My big concern would be paint?
What would you use for a quick build?
Do you attempt to actually fill the weave?

Marc
