By the use of multiple parallels and resiting the jaws on the ARC versatile vice, I managed to get a stable grip on the perspex workpiece. With the axial centrefinder, I aligned the top shaft hole as the reference point and set the DRO such that the readings thereon coincided with the original drawings. From there it was merely a matter of boring the shaft holes to size for the bearings and drilling the other holes as required. The other plates will require similar treatment.
