The neighbour's son races bikes and asked me if I could make up something to adapt a quad piston Brembo caliper to a new rim and disc that he wants to run. I took the centre to centre bolt hole measurements and a picture of the forks, which I imported into Fusion 360. A bit of playing and I came up with this:
I'm a bit disappointed with the radius on the right hand end. My rotary table has 12mm T-slots but the base is too narrow, so the ones for my mill won't fit. I used some bolts and cobbled something together that I thought would work, only to have it slip and put a flat spot on there. Tried to blend it with a file but didn't want to take off too much. It is now happily deburring in the tumbler.
Other than that I'm happy. I've told the owner that I strongly advise they take it to an engineer to have it inspected before heading down the back straight, as I don't want to be responsible for him becoming a greasy spot on the armco barrier
