Put some padding on top of the MDF (a folded up thick bed sheet is good) and then iron your on top of that. A steam iron is best but if you don't have one then you could try dampening your sheet and then iron it - this should steam the creases out. I hate ironing!

Sunny here but memories of what happened to it yesterday are very vivid so I won't hold my breath for the rest of the day.

Have a great day!

This is one of the things I am doing.
I spent a few hours last night watching YouTubes on repairing strimmers that don't run very well.
One thing that is fun is that none of mine ever came with air filters. So it is a bit surprising that they work, or worked, as well as they did! So I'll be cutting up some old, foam, pan scrubs.
It's one of those things where I sort of thought it couldn't be right but was always too busy to do anything.Such a pain that adjusting the jets etc requires a "pacman" socket/screwdriver. With the older 4 stroke one I simply took a hacksaw to it and cut through the housing and the tops of the jets to give me a slot so I could use an ornery screwdriver. I may well do this with this one too.
A lot of peeps simply buy a new carb as it is almost as cheap as getting a rebuild kit, separate hose, fuel filters, the tool etc which if you shop carefully you can get with the carb. Even including the special tool.
It goes against the grain for me to do this, but I may well do.
All good fun and grateful for any advice, as usual!

No but you are right!Steam iron ?
Sorry should have went to the end of Fred
Or do like people did before steam irons became a "thing", either iron it slightly damp, or wet a cloth like an old tea towel and iron it through that.
I find that even with a steam iron you sometimes still need to do this.
Another tip is to get a spray gun/bottle thing like you use to spray kitchen cleaner or white disinfectant with and fill it with water, then you can spray whatever you are ironing with that and keep doing it until the creases eventually go.
(You can tell I didn't go straight from school to uni to marriage)!! And my ex never ironed my shirts properly, she did one, I told her I didn't like the way she ironed a deliberate crease across the yoke at the back so she told me to do it myself then.
I did, but she refused to iron any of my shirts ever again! (This was when she wasn't working, she didn't get a proper full time job for the first 3 or 4 years.)
(How that marriage lasted 7 years I'll never know!)

When our illuminated illustrious leader spoke(peace be upon him).
I was inspired by his thoughts on actual real women with proper anatomy in regards to driving Landrovers.
As a genuine parts real men not third party prosthetic added. We should thank these women who toil the muddy land as we sit behind steering wheel removing said chariot of burden.
