THIS video shows the measurements for a 7', I will be covering a 8' and then my own 9' soon after. How much do these numbers change?

Thanks! :thumbup:

Quick answer, clamp one side of cloth to slate. Pull with maximum stretch, mark cloth on other side of slate while stretched. Subtract 3/4 of an inch.

Depends on the cloth used. Some stretches a lot, and some not so much.
