My sidescreens are done!
Actually turned out to be much easier than I thought. There was no old felt
to remove and I used the felt strips from AH Spares. They fit perfectly and
I simply glued them using contact adhesive. I cut the tape and installed it
in four seperate strips to make it easier to manage, and used a small flat
bladed screwdriver to press it into the channels.
I installed the rear pieces first. I made sure they were properly embedded
into the bottom rail felt and worked them well in by sliding them backwards
and forwards. My son then held the frame and I bent the perspex to fit into
place.
Nice fit, looks great and no rattles.
