Inspired by this thread and the evidence in hand in that thread I decided to build a lower arm bar. Dr. Overkill performed the procedure

Started out with two hiem joints, 8" of opposite threaded tube, two spare brackets, 3"x12" 1/8" steel, and some very hard to find 1x2 anodized aluminum tubing.



First I layed the brakets flat against some cardboard. I find beer boxes to be fantstic. Tracing the curve of the bracket down to the bottom. Cut that curve out and tape it to the bracket itself. Now, with the bracket level, place a level ontop of the bracket and trace a line against the cardboard. Put the hiem joint ontop of the carboard and make a judgement call as to where it should be. Don't forget about the 14 mm bolthead underneath. Transfer that cut out to steel and cut it out. I would repeat that process or at the very least, test it on ALL the brackets. Next clean everything up.



With the bracket bolted to your workbench bust out the magnetic level and stick the new pieces on the bottom of the level and line them up with the bracket. It's important to always have a true and level workbench. It makes things SOOOOO much easier. Put a few tacks on but only a few, we need to make sure its properly aligned.



After you are certain that it is true, a few tacks on the back and run a bead.



Becuase I thought it would be good on the back as well. Not really needed but I did it anyway. Cleaned up the beads on the front as well. Don't know why, they were purty.
