Unbelievable workmanship, Joe! (the whole bulletin board could have a tea party in the gaps betw my strips - sigh!)

Any way here's 2 ideas from the 'reprise' post. 'C' approach is better covered by Nick on this web page in the building tips area. I'm playing around w/ tryin 'A' and a maybe a combo of D or a moveable E in the following post.
