If you want to build a small test piece to experiment with how much silicon to use, how the pieces will need to fit together and practice how to cut the corner pieces correctly, follow these steps. If you are in a hurry and just want to get to the main build, skip this section. Note: You'll need slightly less Aluminum C-channel and flat bars if you opt not to build the test panel
