<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 1537560, member: 56"]I think you've done good work, but I have to say the adhesive tape bothers me. If I felt obliged to cover the edges, I would use 4 strips of acid free paper, 2 of them cut too long. I would score the strips down the center and pre-fold them, put the 2 cut to size into position, place the other two using only a tiny drop of glue at the corners to secure paper to paper, and then trim the long ones to size. That will cover the edges and not involve anything sticking to the dag.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
