I had a rinky dink way of mounting my OHR and decided it was time for something better. This project only cost me $10 but I had to go to the local auto shop for welding. I went to my local ACE Hardware for some angle iron and various nuts, bolts, clamps and washers.
My first step was to cut the angle iron with tin snips to the proper length. I then cut one side to form the angle. Did the same for the other bracket. My local auto shop owner provided the welding skills.
Using four bolts, washers, lock washers and nuts, I attached the OVR.
Then I removed the cover of my monitor, marked the holes for mounting and drilled guide holes.
After drilling larger holes, I slipped bolts up through the hole and secured them with what I call bolt clamps. At first I thought they would spin as I attached the bracket, so I screwed on the nuts to tighten the clamps and then removed the nuts.
Then I reattached the cover and mounted the OHR.
I plugged in and installed the required modules and fastened the cabling.
The finished product.
Happy flying,
Joe
