I'm using 1.0mm stretch magic.

Its just very difficult to get a good grip on and the stretch factor is enormous!


I might go see if I can just find the bungee cord/clothing elastic in a store somewhere.

I've been trying to use Stretch Magic to suspend my hard disks, but damn, it is difficult! The stuff is just *way* too stretchy - as soon as I pop a hard drive on it, the cord just stretches and the hard disk ends up resting on the bottom of the drive tray (P182) How do you guys do it?

P182 rear vent
