Brakes Mtaco 323.jpg
Shea XLRG: I used adel clamps & locknuts to attach the brake lines to the #10 screws. The brake lines can now be adjusted/removed/replaced easily. Each brake line is well supported with three clamps per leg.

Shea XLRG: I used #3 braided lines for the brakes. The heads of #10 countersunk screws & washers were scuffed and potted onto the gear leg. The screw heads/washers were then covered w/ 2 bid. I first tried this technique on some scrap material & performed some destructive testing. Trust me - those screws are not coming off!
