Chas:
You are right. It hit me on the ride home last night that you weren't the one who took pictures of the sidescreens for me. It was Patrick!!! 5 x 10^23 appologies for the mix-up. (Thanks again, Patrick!!)

You just have to be very careful masking when you glue the channel onto the main window.

Bob: excellent suggestion. I'm pretty sure I could get the pieces from TAP Plastics and give it a shot. I like to be able to take stuff apart, so I would likely just get stock in the same sizes I did in aluminum and glue the two pieces together to create the "track" and still use the No8 hdwr to bolt them to the main window panel. I just may do that in my efforts to refine the screens..
Tim: What's next? Keep your eyes on my Ownership Log..... I know you are!
Everyone else: Thanks so much for the positive comments!
