In Response To: Re: Strip: Design ... is this strippable? (Dave Schneider)

: I think the best solution is to stretch
: it out a couple of feet and make it look the way I really wanted it to
: look and then hack off the end and make it into a removable cone. This is

whatever you do, bld it 1st, then(maybe - at least carefully to remate) hack off. otherwise you'll kill yourself trying to match strips and also curvature. hard experience here.

: another suggestion is to have a (clip) solid stem piece.

that was just for a solid form to staple/clamp into. why have extra wt when yr not going to be going backwards tho maybe a little at the front.
