1 hr. fabricating brackets to secure the elevator torque tube.

I decided to put brackets in front and behind the tube to be able to position in where it naturally wants to sit to minimize friction.  I need to better analyze the overall friction in the whole chain of pushrods before committing to riveting these in place.

Blanks cut out (don't have the thickness in front of me, but it's thicker than typical material).

Drilled and reamed to size (4mm).

Bent and ready for installation (which I'm holding off on until I'm sure about the system friction distribution).
