I use a hose hanger (http://www.amazon.com/North-American-He ... ose+holder) to hold up the big tube and this allows the small FX tube to hang and drape down near my body. For me, I like to have the small tube slack, not creating any tension at the attachment to the pillows.

Nice to see you too, kteague - my first night with the new mask was very good UNTIL the house alarm went off (at 11.14pm) (false alarm!)Got up and did some mosaics - I felt awful - eventually I felt sleepy again and slept another 1½hrs. Have a nice weekend, kteague
