[C320-list] Ice Box Gasket

[Doug Treff]

I used a very sharp pair of heavy duty scissors to cut approximately 45-degree corners on the outer pieces. On the strips that go across the middle, I cut them at a 45 degree angle crosswise so they would sort-of follow the curve of the strips that were going by on the perimeter.

I think a very sharp utility knife on a piece of scrap lumber would also active the same effect.
