Michael -
TW has it there, though square to round is a good way to cut your teeth on round work, and new layout tooling can be kept to a minimum – Trammels on a beam with a bullseye type bubble, to tic off the four corners is really all you need. Situating and stabilizing the layup is perhaps the bigger challenge
I'm just home from a long road gig, to an evaporated project and a hole in my schedule and would be happy to help if the project comes together. Zap me a line and I'll try to help in estimating it if you like.
