Fabricating the Servo Mounts
Use 1/16-inch thick aluminum to create two servo mounts, as
detailed in Figure 4.39. Use a 5/32-inch bit to drill the holes. Once
the pieces have been cut and drilled, bend the pieces, as shown by
the arrows in Figure 4.39. Use a table vise or the edge of a table
to bend the pieces. Figure 4.40 shows a finished servo mount.
