In Response To: Strip: To bead or not to bead, that is my question... (Glenn Nunez)

If you don't mind poking your head into a cockpit or hatch and seeing a lot of light shining through the cracks from the outside, beveling is the way to go. I find B&C easier to keep all the strips on the same plane, and easier to do joints.

Beveling makes more sense in joints between colors of strips where B&C might make a wavey line, and on the shear, but otherwise I'm a B&C guy.
