I did not totaly understand what you meant,till I saw Red-Dogs photos.The 382s are different tahn the 292s I just used the screws that the held the rubber mat down.I left the aluminum perimeter on the wood as it was fine.The piece I cut just dropped in the center.

Unfortunately probably a thick layer of dust collecting on the tread plate now, she's still sitting in my building back in Ohio. Waiting until I get the money to construct a storage building at the house here in Vegas before I bring it out west.

I got rid of the edging by forming the diamond plate around the wood. I used .090" material, and clear powder-coated it once it was cut and formed. I also narrowed the center section/widened the doors to give better access to the strainers. 4 years later, I've seen no signs of corrosion...
