[Greenbuilding] finally found some mesh/netting/fabric

[Lynelle Hamilton]

Reuben, is it heavy enough not to tear under the weight of the 
insulation?  I'd think about strapping over the fabric on the studs to 
give more consistent tension, perhaps gluing it to the studs first.  
This may be overkill, though.
