If you don't cut all the way through, make several slow passes when cutting, you can get a pretty good straight cut.


How wide does the strip around the door edge need to be?
We used 1 1/4" flat bar. 5/8" overlap each way.

FYI
The headphone type ear protection sells for about $4.00 and they work great.
