REMEMBER...EVERYTHING IN THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS WRITTEN FOR THE RIGHT-HANDED PERSON. IF LEFT-HANDED, ALL SAWING MUST BE DONE IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

If you have purchased the kit, all of the foregoing machining and layout fluid application has been done for you. Go back to Step #6, and layout your design, using the screw threads to establish the location of the interior punch. Stay a minimum of 1/8" (3mm) away from the outer diameter of the screw threads. Having laid out your design, return here.

Drill a saw blade access hole on the right hand side 1/8" (3mm) outside of the scribed pattern (left hand side if left handed).
