Quote: which brings up a question of the original jute material. What the original stuff was made out of in the 60's and 70's is now basically illegal to put on carpet due to its flammability, so unless they can dye what we have been using on repro carpet for 25 years we will have to live with what we have.
If the "correct" jute is not available/legal, how about a replacement backing that's at least the proper thickness? That 1/4" thick foam most have now is nowhere nearly as thick as original and is part of the current fitment problem IMO.
