    After cutting off top and post here is a list of what I used.
    29 roadster windshield cut 4". Some filling is needed. Roadster windshields are not square.
    1" angle for mounting bracket.
    3/8" ID tubing for stud spacer.
    1/4" rod for base.
    1" freeze plug for windshield stud spacer.
    I made a cardboard pattern to determine shape and angle.
