Print out the template included below (it is best to print it at 100% by disabling the scale to fit page option when printing from Acrobat Reader). Cut it as shown in the pictures and use it to mark the two rectangles and the point of the arrow on BOTH FACES of your plywood board.

You now start out with one of the pieces of timber. If you go for the option to attach the switch with a washer, you should take the one with the hole. Put this piece under the edge of the board with the mark of the arrow as shown. The optional hole should not be under the board. Fix it with at least three nails, avoiding putting a nail close to the mark of the arrow (in order to avoid your plane remain stuck on it, later on).

Attach the other two of the pieces of timber in place (on the marked rectangles) provisionally with a piece of double sided tape each. Turn the board around and attach the pieces permanently with at least three nails each.
