It will create strings on every open area. You can cap those areas before pelting and then remove the polys when you're done, OR...
What I do in max 2012 and higher:
Forget about pelt mapping with the stringer and stretcher.
Do a planar map.
Go into edge mode and turn on point to point seams and draw out your seams on the model and break.
Select the faces/element and either hit relax or quick peel.
Done.
It's like pelt mapping but without the annoying stringer and springs.
