Hit my 50th stretcher power stretch yesterday and finally got it perfect in under 10 minutes

Been wrestling with that stupid lever for months but something just clicked on this one and the wrinkles disappeared like magic - anyone else have a specific number of jobs before a technique finally stuck?

The lever angle was the big one for me. Like once I stopped fighting it and let the fabric settle naturally it just worked. It's funny how that happens in so many things though. I've noticed with cooking or even fixing stuff around the house you can struggle for months then one day your hands just know what to do. There's something about repetition that rewires your brain without you realizing it until it clicks.

Yeah, was it the lever angle or the pressure that finally clicked for you?
