I purchased a bag of polyester pillow stuffing hoping it consists of long fibers but it happened to be shredded and it forms a sort of loose granules. So it just wouldn't stay in one area. I'm going to use it anyway by putting it in a sack. I think a cheese cloth may work well. Any other ides?

You need to teaze it out so it's fluffy. Probably would have been easier to buy a bag of polyfil from the dressmakers/fabric store. Also, you can use tulle to support the polyfil and keep it in place. What are you building?

I'm building a tapered TL with Alpair 10.3. I actually bought it from the fabric store. They have polyester sheets but I found it too compacted so I asked for a pillow stuffing material instead. Tulle is great and I can find it in a second hand store in a form of curtains or something

You've pointed me to the right direction. Tulle -> mesh -> Ha! I have plastering mesh leftovers! It's quite rigid so I can make barriers from it
