Ogre pretty well drew up the plans in his thread.

The hard part will be drilling the hole in the side of the plate for the roll pin if you don't have a decent drill press and drill press vise.

If you don't have local scrap yard or fab shop that sell small pieces of aluminum sheet metal scraps that could be a challenge too.

I'll have to look the next time I am up at Chicago Junk that is local to Nvrdone and me.

The map for Nvrdone in case he doesn't know about this go to for small pieces of metal at an honest price in Yakima. I've done business with them for over 40 years.
