I've considered that too, as I have an old felt hat that I've cut "washers" out of for screw wipers. Its about the right thickness, possibly a little thin at circa 1/8". 3/16" would be icing on this cake. The edge of the brim at nearly 1/4" might work quite well. Make a miter joint out of 2 small bits of it. Some of that go2 silicon glue should do the miter joint. Where I am, "saving time" is taking the time to make it, 3 weeks quicker than buying it online. Thanks Andy. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
