As you can see, some modelers have offered their solution to the rounded edging. Somehow, it appears too primitive, to say nothing of the risks dealing with the sharp edges.

Okay, got the rounded edge. What about the overlap of metal? I decided to cut a thin strip of electric tape. When cut into thin strips, it is amazingly flexible.

Living in a small apartment, requires a bit of ingenuity. Besides, I don't relish the idea of hammering away of heated metal over a flame. This photo is pretty much self-explanatory.

Front view which also includes the main instrument panel, the small storage for the Lewis gun cartridge, and the Vickers gun to the left. What makes the stiffner a challenge is to add metal trim around the front edges without kinking the metal. Its really a double-edged compound curve. Looking closely, one can easily see what appears to be a rounded edge.
