Thanks very much for the advice all. Makes it very easy and inspires
confidence when those who respond agree! This is really great to be in
contact with so many who have gone before me.

Kevin,
I did it both ways and recommend cutting the BID to stop at the balance box
area.  Similarly, don't be afraid to stuff the flox into the gap between the
closeout and the bottom skin, but no need to build in more weight than
necessary - the radius of the mixing stick at the exposed join will be fine
for the BID adhesion.

Going across the balance box area require some cutting away with the Dremel
tool.
