You can buy channels already shaped,
I would suggest googling as a few of the mags have had write ups on doing this job.
Britannica resto has done a few vids.
Cheers

I should have said I’ve got 2 lengths of channel from YRM. I was thinking of making my own channel but I’m glad I got the proper stuff now. I’m taking the skin off and hopefully it’s reusable.
