Brief Description:  More brake work-running central brake lines

This was a trail and error type task where you just have to figure out where to run the brake lines where they won't interfere with anything else. I have added a lot of work to the plane building by putting in hand brakes, but they are a really good thing for one legged pilots. There is not much room in the central tunnel, so carefully routing of the hand brake lines from the brake pedals to the hand brake and then back again was the requirement. I put the 4 lines in conduit and routed them down the left bottom of the central tunnel, and then under the fuel pump. From there it was easy to take the lines up the 45 degree angle on the firewall attaching them with Adel clamps.
