Has anyone here ever tried to put new sisal on their cats' scratching posts?

I just went to the hardware store and bought sisal rope to do it with. Heavier gauge rope needs fewer turns and less time, which is a GOOD thing! I used hot glue on my sisal, but U-shaped tacks, staples, etc. would be easier.

Same here with the sisal we replaced in the Katzenhaus except we didn't use any hot glue, just the u shaped nails.
