Grind a soft point on it. Install in holder and lightly run wood bit facsimile along plug body and the pencil touching the paper on plexi will trace the exact outline. Cut on bandsaw and sand down to outline. Good Luck.

I do the same thing except i took a piece of rod and ground a point onto it to scribe the plexi or lexan.
