I too worry about the brackets.  A possible solution:

 

You can get precut stainless steel from here:

A 5.5 inch x 6 inch 22 ga piece, about 4 pot short bracket size, is $2.51
each in quantity 10.  You have to drill and bend though.

 

You can ge a small brake for bending from this place, look for the 18 inch
version:

A drill press is also recommended.  I already have one for panel drilling.

Sad but understandable news.  If a side venture makes you hate the day you
were born, it is probably not a venture you should be into!

 

I, speaking only for myself, would like to see Stooge keep doing:

 

1.- panels (but I can live with FPE)

2.- brackets (I know of no alternative)

3.- cables (but I have lots already....)

 

So really, if you cannot make this work, I need to find a way to make
brackets.  Am I completely off my nut or would I just need a drill press, a
shear and a brake to fab 'em myself?
