The rudder cable brackets, especially CS72 look kind of hard to make. So I bought them from the Cozy Girrrls. There are two set of brackets for each rudder - CS71 and CS72.
These
brackets were straight forward. My difficulty was fitting the holes through the
blind screws - that we installed in Chapter 4. My blind screws were coming out like
the spikes of a porcupine - makes me appreciate good workmanship! It took me a couple of hours to get them
to fit in nicely
and square. Especially since the Cozy Girrrls made them out of steel instead of
aluminum.
Note the nylon tubing for the rudder cable coming out right underneath the pulley between the brackets?
Fitting
these brackets was a bit tougher because of fitting 3 holes instead of 2
and in more of a 3D formation. No kidding, when the plan says 'adjust the
mounting holes as required'
. I
first put a bolt through the center of the bracket set with washers to fill in
the gap in between. After another couple hours of head scratching, I finally got
the holes filed, drilled and ground to fit the blind screws.
Here's
a side view of one of these bracket assemblies.
