Yurt Dome Gasket Idea

[Jafo]

When we were putting up our yurt, I noticed that the plexiglass

dome

that sits above the

center ring

, did not sit perfectly tight. I guess I shouldn't expect it to, and to date nothing has leaked. I am thinking that in an area where there is high driving winds though, water could get under the yurt

dome

. I think a round foam rubber or just a rubber gasket sitting on the edge of the dome might be a good idea. For lack of a better analogy, I am thinking like the gasket you see on a pressure cooker lid. It would look something like this:



Since it would be glued on the edge of the dome, you shouldn't be able to see it when the dome is closed, and probably not even when it is open.

Thoughts?
