Accuracy is not that necessary as the pieces only are
needed to stiffen the sides and prevent any possibility of
warping when the silicone rubber is poured over them to
make the mold.
After the 4” x 6” stiffeners were added, I located where the
stirrups will be placed and made some divots similar to the
ones needed to locate the grabs on the side of the car.
