Hello,

Sorry the dowel was to hold the glass in place while I grind. I have three lines 120 degree apart from center. Thought I could just drill holes along those lines for various mirror diameters using the dowel as plugs. The dowel as braces to avoid the mirror moving, with the dowel about 3/4 up the side of the mirror.

The idea was pretty much the pdf, but I was working on three lines, the cleats were the wooden blocks, I just wanted dowel as I could keep them in sets for the grits(and lot cheap than nuts/bolt washer combo's). Changing the face on the blocks/cleats for different size mirrors is fairly simple with a 1" face+. Wasn't keen on dragging previous parts to the next grit any way I could cheaply.

But I am probably over thinking it as you do with a new challenge, before you've even started.


Thanks for the reply and link
Steve
