Ok, so I am building my own warming box, but where the hinges are located at the corners, I have a 1/4 gap, the plexiglass back and sides are not flush. Is this OK?- Will I loose too much heat through the gaps?

Did you already drill your holes? Good for you if you did--Mine kept cracking--grrr--use a dull drill bit is the advice I got afterwards--but anyway--I sealed my edges with wide clear tape. Shoot I made my box with clear wide tape. Patched up my cracked hinge holes perfect. <insert grimacing smilie face here> sheesh...
I mean you are making a shield, a surround to control temperature. If air can pass through it you're adding an unnecessary variable.
I mean some pastry chefs don't even use a box...so whatever works.
But I made sure mine was sealed.
