    I don't remember the exact angle measurements, but I have recently measured the inner and outer lengths which will allow you to cut the correct angles out of the sides of the strut. Getting pictures uploaded here is a bit of a PITA, send me a Facebook message and I'll get you the measurements.

    Haha, you sure are right about that. I used a BFH and an anvil :D The BFH was 4lbs, fwiw. Did the slow "guess and check" method.
