Problem: Article: Your workspace should be made of wood, metal, or concrete. Grass or paper are not good choices, as the Plexiglas could adhere to these materials. , if necessary. Prepare the pieces to be joined by cutting them to the proper size and shape. Acrylic glass that is a quarter inch (6.3 mm) or thicker is best cut with a table saw or miter saw. Pieces that are thinner than this can be scored with a utility knife and then snapped cleanly apart, but only along straight lines. If your cut edges are rough, sand and polish them so you have a clean and smooth edge on which to apply the glue. Remove the protective film, if applicable, after cutting so as not to scratch the Plexiglas. Before attempting to join the acrylic glass, clean the pieces with a mild soap and water, focusing on the edges that will be glued. After cleaning and rinsing the pieces, blot them dry thoroughly with a clean cloth - don't rub, or you may scratch the surface. You can also clean acrylic glass with isopropyl alcohol. Once you have cleaned the pieces, fit them together as they will be joined. After ensuring a snug fit, secure the pieces together with either masking tape or clamps.
Summary: Choose a solid workspace. Cut the Plexiglas Clean the Plexiglas. Set the acrylic glass in place for gluing.

Problem: Article: If you don't have any parchment paper, you can use wax paper instead. Make 7 dollops of Nutella on the parchment paper, using 1 to 2 tablespoons (27.5 to 37 grams) for each. Smooth the dollops into flat disks using a knife, mini rubber spatula, or cake decorating spatula. Aim to make the disks about 2 inches (6 centimeters) wide and inch (0.5 centimeter) thick. It might be a good idea to made a few extra Nutella disks in case some break. They are ready when they turn firm. While the disks are freezing, you can start preparing the pancake batter. You can use your favorite recipe, or try the one in this method. You can peel the disks off of the parchment paper, but you should leave them in the freezer so that they don't thaw. Pour the flour into a large mixing bowl. Add the baking powder, sugar, and salt. Stir everything together with a whisk. Pat the dry ingredients flat, then make a small hole in the middle. Crack an egg into the hole, then add the milk. For extra flavor, add some vanilla extract as well. Keep whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Do not over-mix it, otherwise the pancakes will turn tough. Place about teaspoon of butter into a small, nonstick frying pan, Melt the butter over medium heat, then wipe it off with a paper towel. Leave a very thin layer of butter behind. While the butter is melting, take out 1 to 3 Nutella disks out of the freezer. Leave the rest in the freezer. You can also try using cooking spray instead. You have to work quickly for this step, so have everything you need on hand. Pour about cup (60 milliliters) of pancake batter onto the pan. Quickly place a Nutella disk on top. This is the secret to getting golden-brown pancakes! Plan on using a little less than cup (60 milliliters). Use a rubber spatula to help smooth the pancake batter over the disk. Make sure that it is completely covered. Let the pancake fry a little first. After about 2 minutes, it will start to form bubbles around the edges. Once that happens, slide a spatula under it, and flip it over. This will take another 1 to 2 minutes. As soon as the pancake is done, move onto the next one. Frozen Nutella thaws quickly, so it is important that you work in small batches. If the Nutella thaws, it will become difficult to work with and give you very messy pancakes. Only take 1 to 3 Nutella disks out of the freezer at a time. This recipe has enough batter to make 6 or 7 pancakes. If a pancake bursts, scrape off the leaked Nutella before moving onto the next pancake. You will have to re-grease the pan after every couple of pancakes. Remember to wipe the excess butter off! You can eat them just as they are, or top them with some sliced strawberries or strawberry jam.
Summary:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Make 7 disks out of Nutella on the parchment paper. Freeze the Nutella disks for 1 to 1 hours. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl. Make a well in the center, then add the wet ingredients. Whisk everything together. Melt some butter in a pan, then wipe it off. Pour some batter onto the pan, then top it off with a Nutella disk. Cover the disk with more pancake batter. Flip the pancake after about 2 minutes. Cook the pancake until it is golden on both sides. Cook the rest of the pancakes in small batches. Serve the pancakes.
