Hello
I have found that the best way to make a new windshield is to use the old
one as a template. Cut a 4x8 sheet of plywood(1/2 inch) to the desired shape
with a combination of circular saw with straight edge and jig shaw for the
tight inside curves. Place the new sheet of lexan over the plywood and clamp
as required. Use a trim router with a flush cutting bit to cut out the
windshield. You will find that the cuts are very smooth and require no
additional sanding. Now save the plywood template, next time a windshield
is needed it will take all of 10 minutes to cut another one.
