This strip 2 is firstlaid upon the edge portion of the sheet 1 and bent'around so as to inclose both sides sheet is then bent so that both sides form an angle, prferably a right angle, forming two legs 4 and 5, the end ofleg 5 being open and the outer side ext-ending farther along'the sheet than the inner, as shown in Fig. 5. y
