Re: meade lightbridge shroud?

I would do what is done often on these, use the drawstring end treatment. Mine is not stretchy material, but it has the hoops mentioned above. The hoops can be made from thin ABS. You can get suitable material from project binders, coat hangers, what ever you fancy.

You could by one of those nylon laundry bags with a draw string at the dollar store and convert it. I used a big one of those for a while as a cover for my 10" LB until I got the shroud I have.
