One Bracket down

Was out of town last weekend, so no work that weekend, and this weekend was abbreviated with out of town guests and a visit to my CPA to get my taxes going. I did get a few hours in to work on the alternator bracket, and it is now nearly done. I made the two spacers, located the two holes on the top bracket for the spacers, and did some finish shaping on the front and rear plates. Sounds simple, but took the better part of four hours. Next up is getting a coworker to turn down some round stock for a couple idler brackets, and figure out the tensioner bracket.

The TSA probably freaked out last weekend. I pulled a box out of storage, put my ATO fuse block, some miscellaneous wiring, some Aluminum stock and a few other things in the box, and checked it on my flight home. When it came off the conveyor, it had fresh tie wraps securing it, and a TSA inspection form letter inside. With the fuse block now home, I've started modifying the main harness for the modern block, and will be increasing the circuits available with the harness.
