I consider my building skills to be average at best. I did the big cut today and it was anti climatic. I resisted the temptation to have a few shots of tequila to calm my nerves before I put the cutting wheel to the plexi.
I used a dremel tool with the cable extension. I masked off the area with two pieces of tape, positioned with the aid of the cardboard that Vans recommends you place between the roll bar and canopy frame. I just went slowly and cut between the two tape strips. No problem. At least not one that I have recognized yet, the final fitting is still to come.
It is not perfect, but it turned out better than I had expected.
My thanks to those builders who have documented the big cut on their websites, especially Mickey Coggins. That information helped a great deal.
