Step 6Mark your cut and cut your pan
Grab your jigsaw and a woodcutting blade.
Trace your template onto your plywood, including your mounting holes. Cut out the outline, but don't drill the holes unless you will actually be using them to mount your seat.
It was at this point that I scrapped my original plan of putting carriage bolts throught the seat and threading nuts on from the other side. If you stop and think about it and notice that you don't want to cram your hand under there, either, let alone try and tighten nuts that way, you'll scrap the bolt idea.
Of course, if you want a more permanent seat installation and your frame of choice allows you to access fasteners in the appropriate locations, drill your holes and put your bolts in now.
