Tuga, I'm beginning to understand. It seems that one end is factory glued and the other end is cut to length, glued, and clamped. It also appears that the ends are positioned at the bottom of the slide. This is where it gets fuzzy for me. How do you achieve a weather tight seal where the clamp is placed? How big is the clamp? Do you position the clamp adjacent to the slide or does it get tucked in somewhere? Thanks so much for your help.
David,
The end of the seal is positioned at the bottom of the slide in the center of the slideroom. When I get to Austin, we can retract my slideroom and take a look at the clamped part. It has been 5 years since mine was done and to be honest I can not remember exactly how it begins and ends. The clamp is small, I remember that. The clamp is screwed directly into the wood frame that the seal sits in. The beginning may be laid over the clamp to form a good seal, I just can't remember.
I think Russ is going to change his bedroom seal pretty soon, maybe he can explain it better than I can. Russ, are you planning on attending the Austin POG 10 rally? Maybe you could do a little seminar on changing seals!
