Cut This Template From The Sheet of Paper and Use Spray Adhesive To Attach To A Piece Of Plexiglas or Lexan. (Keep Protection Paper On The Plastic.) Cut Out The Top Outline Precisely To This Outline And Sand To The Line Edge With A Spindle Sander If Available. Next Use a Sharp Scratch All Or Other Sharp Instrument And Mark All Of the Brace Ends Clearly Into the Plastic. Chuck Up A 1/16" Drill Bit In Your Drill Press And Carefully Drill A Hole Through All Of the Brace Ends
With Brace Ends Drilled And Brace Centers Scratched Into The Surface Of The Plastic, You Now Have A Very Long-Lasting Top Template And Top Brace Marking Template. Knock-Off The Edges Of The Plastic Slightly To Prevent Injury And Damage. Note That The Lexan Will Be Harder To Sand And Will Scratch Easier, But It Is Very Durable. Plexiglas Will Crack If Dropped On Your Shop Floor.
Use A Sharp Scratch All Or Other Sharp Instrument And Mark All The Brace Ends. These Are Shown With The Small Circle At The Centerline Intersection Once All The Holes Have Been Drilled, Remove The Paper Protection From The Plastic. For The Brace Intersections, Take A Sharp Pointed Tool, Like A Scratch Awl And Mark The Centerline Of Each Brace Clearly Into The Surface Of The Plastic.
