AcidArmitage:

i used scrap plexi and made a translucent "L" bracket with superglue

meany:

I bought some aluminium corner pieces from home depot.  Drilled holes in them, and painted.  $4.00

Cut a slot.

NickG:

Some folks just use t-molding -  similar to this:



In this photo I glued two materials - 1/2" and 1/8" instead of cutting a rabbet on a 5/8" edge.  The original idea behind using this method was to make the 1/8 adjustable for different marquee thicknesses; but I ended up gluing it down.

krisbee:

All excellent ideas!  I'm still not sure which way I am going to go... I was kind of hoping to have yellow t-molding cover the horizontal pieces of the marquee...  but at least I have a frame of reference now!

Thank you all!
