Started this project on Saturday...worked on it some more this morning... Anyway, here are some progress pics...
Btw, this is my third variation... more subtle changes coming... Final will have more of a roll at the top bends instead of the harder angles. Will most likely be polished. I'm also planning on having some text CNCed on the sides and backed with a colored plate. I'm debating the text right now.
[Edit]
Ok... so I was able to do a practice run on my latest template... the early prototype is made out of .040" aluminum. The cover is small and light and will be secured with two bolts/nuts in the back and one countersunk screw toward the front.
The prototype is only placed in the following pics... I have not made any adjustments yet.
My bends were off in this prototype... they will be on point in the final version though.
I decided to do things differently here... instead of having the little extensions that meet up with the sides... I'm going to cut that shape last and rivet it to the rear bracket.
