The bottom feeder in me would not let me throw away these storm door frames. What good are they? I needed some brackets to mount some pots on.
 |
| Look at that big old "L" bracket! Remove an ear from each side and set that bracket free. |
 |
| From this angle you can see one ear sticking up and one sticking down. |
 | |
| I'm using a router free hand (except the bit has a bearing). One pass and one ear gone. |
 |
| A little closer look. See the ear is gone. |
 |
| I flipped it over and made a second pass. With the two ears gone I have my "L" bracket. |
 |
| I cut off the piece I am ready to use. |
 | |
| Just another view. |
 |
| A quick trip to the chop saw an I have my four brackets. |
 | |
| As you can see here they have a little bow in them. I could put them on the anvil and give a couple taps with a hammer to straighten them. |

| A closer look. |
