  Hmm...sorry about that. How about this one from a friend. She said they used glazing pins to hold the metal in place. Perhaps it'll help! https://www.rustic-refined.com/2016/07/how-to-make-barn-door.html

  this is same video as one posted above. He just doesn't show or tell me how to do corrugated ends. I cannot decide if they just sit on top or if they are fitted into the grooves. Thank you for the help.
