That would be SOME product Corrugated glass! Haul that into the local window guy "yes, I'd like this little bathroom window re-glazed with THIS" right before whipping it out of the box......
Anyway, I think the wrinkles appear as it slides/ rolls out, almost like making home made pasta, has to be cradled and laid out to dry. Factory wise, the methods are completely automated.
I'm far behind in google quests; satisfying those (+ me) who want to know.

Hmmm. That may be a Texas thing. Headed for Frank S's place, also happened to me, navigator was mislead by places with similar names. Overshot only 280 miles southwest.

Past 3 years, my forays have all been unaccompanied, someone has to mind the pets.
In the car, I take a dog, gets whole back seat. I stop for gas, fill one tank and empty two others, he eats when I do, and never wants 6 hours at outlet malls. He loves running all over property at machinery dealer though.
