Cutting The New Port Openings

In order to get the laminate trimmer around the entire opening you'll need to move the clamps as you go. Just cut a section them move the clamps. I was able to cut an entire port with only three clamp moves and the template stayed put.


As evidenced by the photo, using the flush cut bit and the NFM template as a guide, leaves a perfect cut that looked better than the original factory openings..

using 3/8" wood dowels really helps to keep the template in place
