strip muting with sheet metal

[Allen Wright]

That's perfect, Paul...congratulations - you just saved yourself a  
lot of time and annoyance. I like the Masonite idea, with the hole -  
like an artists palette, right? It's nice to have something so long  
because you can cram half the strip down at once.
