I'm rather thinking even just some 1/8 x 1/2 to 1/8 x 1 flat stock with holes drilled in it to let the curtain be zip tied in place. And a few more holes...

I think that the idea is a fine one. And I assume that the sides and back would all be one sheet? Otherwise the chips would still find a way through...

I don't know about flat head screws. I wouldn't want the hex, phillips or slots showing in the final plate. So that means leaving the heads proud and...

Good point about the proper glue line thickness. I know in particular that epoxy is like that. Heck, it's even possible to over clamp a wood joint using...

Just so you all know what we're talking about here's the little beast itself next to a pretty generic coffee mug. The picture is hiding a lot of the...
