[ckreol1]

Jig saw is a good idea.  Where do you buy your plexiglass?

I'm in the UK and all my supplier links are in the proper forum thread, can't remember offhand what thread is called !

One of mine is the http://theplasticpeople.co.uk and the other is http://plastickstockist.com.

this shows cutting a different material, but this is the proper way to do it.

Theres a guy on this forum, who made some videos showing how to do the same thing using his Dremmell Tool.

basically you mount the jig with a single bolt.
it doesnt matter where you drill the hole, as long as the circle fits on your piece of plexi, it will come out perfectly center marked.

like a compass.
