Holes drilled. The only trick here is to make sure that for the bottom holes, you drill at vertical, but with a very slight angle back, so the hole is maybe 5° off vertical towards the narrow edge. I did this by drilling as soon as the "level" light on the drill went on. This makes sure there is enough room for tee-nut on the bottom edge.

The triangle file I used to clean up the edges, the top glassed edge tends to have little bits of glass hanging off it.

Also note the ready-to-work vang pedistal, with all the mess of epoxy still there.
