Don't feel so bad about your project taking longer than expected. Some (most) of my projects move at a glacial pace if I'm lucky.
I like how you did the curves on metal on doors for windows .. nice job. I couldnt do that .
Here's the weatherstripping I used in the picture above:
Shop Frost King 1/4" x 3/8" x 17' Grey, D-Section EPDM Rubber Weatherstrip Tape at Lowes.com
It's purpose is to perform as a gasket between bolted-together sections. I did get some really nice door gaskets from McM/C as you suggested earlier. It is really nice material. It has metal embedded in the rubber that grabs the flange and a hollow "D" profile that will really take care of any gaps.
Don't sell yourself short. I have some experience with metal but never attempted anything of this magnitude before.
Here are a couple pictures of the door weatherstripping from McMaster. It is very pliable and will take on whatever amount of compressing required to to seal the gaps at the doors.
