I took a scrap piece of 1/8 inch scrap Luann plywood paneling, layed my windshield frame on top of it, and drew the lines, to the inside of the frame. I then added a 1/4 (or 1/2 I cant remember) inch line, all round, cut it out with a Jig Saw.

Then I took the frame apart to insert it, in the frame and had to cut it a little to make it fit just a hair loose, left the pattern in the frame. My glass shop appreciated the pattern, cut the Glass to my Pattern, and had to do minor grinding to make it fit. They used glass setting tape, the thickness of old cloth electrical tape and also used black windshield sealer so as to stop water leaks. When I left the shop the screws were inserted by the cutter, all set to install.

I had them cut a piece of glass that was lightly Tinted through out. My cost was $85.00 without the Pattern it would have been $125.00
I now store the pattern in the garage attic for a future windshield or if some one else needs to use it.
