which unglued edge?

mine are sika'd all round. on the first one, i filled the bottom edge but on the second i've left it as an airgap.

from memory, it's probably 3mmish though. 3mm acrylic? go see a signmaker's. i'm sure they'll give you plenty of offcuts.

I've rivetted the top and will probably just fil the bottom side with sikaflex.

Hindsight says I should have sika'd the whole thing, but never mind.
