It took four tries but I finally got it the way I wanted, sort of, read on.

  • Leftmost attempt – aluminum, just getting dimensions, bend lines and rough shape.
  • Second from left – aluminum, bends are ok, a little short, holes off slightly.
  • Third from left – steel, too short as I neglected to trial fit with all parts together at full travel.
  • Rightmost – steel, perfect.  Ready for primer.

Clears everything at full travel – view looking aft.

Underside view – before I drilled second hole.

Top view – I could remove a bit more material to save weight including a couple of lightening holes.
