Don't know where you would source the channel to DIY, but - this is where I got mine. Be careful that the glass has the correct specification and markings if you are planning to IVA. Plenty Pics in my archive of assembling it.

Not quite the 'noobie' your posts imply, then? Well done, have you registered it yet?

I can give you the size of the aluminium chanel which you should be able to source from your local non-ferrous metal stockholder. However, you will need to make up a special mandrel for bending it. I believe you can buy channel with a lower T slot for inserting a rubber seal. I doubt whether your local stockist would keep that profile but it is available.

Please drop me a U2U if you need any information
