Pedals
I had a local fab shop weld the aluminum parts together after I cut them out on a band saw.






To make the pedals adjustable I'm going to use a knob with a 5/16" screw and drill a hole in the plate. Then I'll use some threaded brass wood screw nuts and screw them into the springboard.



Right now the plan is to drill a hole in each of the vertical plates alongside the springboard and run a 1/2" rod across. Then drill holes in the pedals and slide them on. I bought some brass bushings that I can insert into oversized holes to reduce wear and tear on the soft aluminum.



They used a stitch weld to keep the aluminum from warping from heat. I will clean these up a little with a dremel tool and steel wool.
