I think its about time for an update. I took the time today to glue the pushrod to the brackets. I held the pushrod in place with a wire while the glue dried. Its still curing, so I don't know how well its going to hold yet. I still think adding another bracket on the long side is a good idea to stop the pushrod from flexing right at the glue joint.

Anyway, lets see some pics.
