SD Base Jabber WIP #2

Its about time I got around to that display base for all of the SDs.
To keep things super simple I started with a rock, easy to come by and very cheap.



I used my hammer drill to poke three 1/8" holes in it with a masonry bit.



I then used a bolt cutter to cut three different lengths of 1/8" brass rod (about 6 CAD and I only used about half of it). I bent two of the three in a few spots to get the desired pose.


Then de-burred with a bastard file and ground one end down a little bit extra to fit the stand peg hole a bit better (for most kit I've built it is around 3 mm which is slightly smaller than 1/8").
