[sdiy] Where can I get desktop synth enclosures

[Senso]

I'm thinking about the rubber strips they use to put windows in cars.
It's flexible and will follow the curves of the enclosure, and I'm sure
you can find a type of strip where the material of each side will slip
in nicely. And it's black already, so no repainting; just glue and bracing.
