Brief Description:  Engine #13 - Red Cube support

Bob provided the two-sided drawing and the aluminum stock for the red cube support, and since I wanted to confirm the hose measurement to finalize the order for Tom at TS Flightlines, now is a great time to turn this aluminum angle into an airplane part. I started with the paper outline, cut that out, and traced the outline to the angle. Using the band saw, cut out the rough shape of the support and then finished off the edges with the scotch brite wheel and hand files. I measured and drilled the two holes that attach the support to the engine sump, but it's dinner time and I will drill the final hole next session. Thanks for the head-start, Bob, that made it easy.
