I'm just using "U" shaped channel from Plastruct that slides over the .060 plastic sheet. Its mitered in the corners and glued with adhesive. Yes the brass downspouts are covering the seams. In some cases I fill the seams with light dry drywall mud, usually the stuff that goes on pink and dries white.
Lances website really shows how to do this in detail.
Reinhard,
You do great work. I'm just basically copying what Lance is doing to see if I care for the method. Its not hard and Lance's pictures are detailed enough to copy. I haven't had an original idea in years.

Thanks, Larry - I picked up some of the PVC board that Lance uses, thanks for the tip! My first impression is that it will work very well. It's quite sturdy and very straight. At Home Depot they only sell it in 12' lengths (at $22 for the 12-foot board), so I've got enough for a few of these plants if I continue to mess up!
