We received out sheetmetal bracket back from Kia Ora sheetmetal. The engineers there had made it to an excellent standard. In order to keep costs down we said we would cut all holes ourselves. This image shows us testing and adjusting the position and height of our motor bracket and parts. Damien and Haydn had bought some 5mm alloy sheetmetal earlier in the week. This was probably overkill, when we only needed minimum 2mm to be structurally sturdy. We traded this sheetmetal in for credit on our motor bracket part. All up the motor bracket itself cost $193.
