Regulator Bracket

Now you see why I should have done this bend first.  See how the tab is getting all bent out of shape as I hammer over the mount?  Alternatively I could have pulled out the old Ox-Acetylene torch and heated the bend area to keep the rest of the tab from doing the macarena.
Duh.  Not exactly mil-spec workmanship huh?  Like I keep telling you, better a wino bracket on a bike that runs then a perfect unfinished project on a bike sitting broken in the garage.
This was the field expedient, so to speak.  I used a drift to hammer the other side over.  This way I could concentrate the blows so that the bracket would bend the way I wanted.  It was quicker then hauling out the torch.  I then bashed the other side as straight as I could.  Perhaps I should stick to electrical engineering huh?
