How does the CPO plexi stay put?

To all the folks with plexi over their control panels WITHOUT carriage bolts:

How does the plexi stays put?

Sure, the buttons play a large part in holding it together but what about the edges?


Thanks

Blanka:
If it is too thin, the plexi will grow under use as it heats up. This will mostly affect the edges. So use 3-4mm at least. But to keep the edges from bending up I guess you will always need some glue or screws. Maybe you can make tiny slots and metal clamps to keep the surface clean.

KillerV:
My plexi is just held down by the buttons and it aint going anywhere. I've had a whole mess of kids, my brother, wife, and me beating the heck out of it all weekend and it stayed put.
However, I do plan on putting some "L" shaped plastic on the front of the plexi, just because it's a little sharp on the edge.

I might have. I did see it somewhere else. It's only temporary until I design a more premament cpo. But it does look bad-ass!
