Not sure what you mean about combining the wood braces with smaller glass braces. How would I do that?
The straps would go front to back, edge to edge over top of the outter trim, so the dowels would be running up and down. 1" into the strap and 2" into the front trim. Viewing the strapping from the side with the dowels installed it would resemble a staple if that makes sense. LOL
