Cut the plywood to size. You want your plywood to be 48" x 80". The 4 foot side will be fine but you will have to cut the 8' side down to 80". Measure over to 80", mark with your pencil, and cut using your skill saw. 2. Now you need to cut the arched area on the piece of plywood. To get a precise arch you can use the nail and twine method. See more at: www.plumprettydecoranddesign.com Page "1 of "4 Here's how: A. First measure over 40" and mark. B. From that mark measure down 20" and place your nail. C. Using a piece of twine and your pencil, attach the twine to the nail and your pencil with a 20" gap between the two. D. Now stretch out the twine and mark your circle. Creating a circle with a 40" diameter. E. Next create a pivot point with a board. Meaning use a stationary point that can not move (a clamped board) and place your nail in.

    Historic Context Statement City of Benicia February 2011 Benicia, CA Prepared for City of Benicia Department of Public Works & Community Development Prepared by page & turnbull, inc. 1000 Sansome Street, Ste. 200, San Francisco CA 94111 415.362.5154 / www.page-turnbull.com Benicia Historic Context Statement FOREWORD “Benicia is a very pretty place; the situation is well chosen, the land gradually sloping back from the water, with ample space for the spread of the town. The anchorage is excellent, vessels of the largest size being able to tie so near shore as to land goods without lightering. The back country, including the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, is one of the finest agriculture districts in California. Notwithstanding these advantages, Benicia must always remain inferior in commercial advantages, both to San Francisco and Sacramento City.”1 So wrote Bayard Taylor in 1850, less than three years after Benicia’s founding, and another three years before the city would—at least briefly—serve as the capital of California. In the century that followed, Taylor’s assessment was echoed by many authors—that although Benicia had all the ingredients for a great metropolis, it was destined to remain in the shadow of others. Yet these assessments only tell a half truth. While Benicia never became the great commercial center envisioned by its founders, its role in Northern California history is nevertheless one that far outstrips the scale of its geography or the number of its citizens. Benicia gave rise to the first large industrial works in California, hosted the largest train ferries ever constructed, and housed the West Coast’s primary ordnance facility for over 100 years.
