Step 3Attaching the plate to the stand

Attaching the plate to the stand
Next we need to attach the plate to the stand. Try and pick up one of the stands with the bracket attached. If not, the stand will still have holes, which you could run bolts through to use as a base to glue them together.
  1. Lay down the stand, and play around till you get a good height
  2. Next, use a ruler and redraw the top line, this way you can get it nice and level.
  3. Roughly trace around your bracket, make sure to leave a little room.
  4. Once you have the area traced you need to cut out, we then need to drill out keypoints to allow us to cut it out easily.
  5. Once you have your key points, undo your coping saw and thread it through one of the holes, then cut along your lines.
Once its cut out we can quickly sand of the edges to take of excess burr. Do not sand the edges flat, the roughness will give us a better grip with the glue.
