Default Creating fiberglass dash

Hi guys,

It's been a long time since I posted here! Things seem to have changed
a lot...

About a year ago, someone stole my CD player and broke my dash into a
lot of little pieces. This turned out not to be so bad, though,
because it gave me a chance to build my own dash out of fiberglass
(which was a lot of work, but a lot of fun).

Anyway, this time I recessed the deck to be flush with the panel, but
I've had a real hard time getting the edges to be perfectly straight.
I got it as straight as I could using a piece of particle board and
sandpaper, but it's still a bit wavy.

Is there a better way to get a "perfectly" (relatively) straight edge
here? We're talking a 90 degree angle, the width of a standard deck,
and about 1/2" deep. I wouldnt' be so concerned except that the rest
of the dash looks perfect, and this is the only area that makes it
look homemade.

TIA,

Mike
