[R-390] Cutting Aluminum sheet for your R390

[Robert Nickels]

Some of you may have seen the excellent work my friend Mike KG7TR has 
done in his ER articles on his homebrewed SSB gear as seen here:

Mike gave a presentation at the Jonesborough TN Central 
Electronics-Vintage SSB gathering this year on his construction methods 
and tools.   He stresses that he doesn't own a brake or shear and makes 
the panels and cabinets for all this beautiful gear using a square, 
sabre saw, and "lots of filing".    If you're in production, you want to 
use the right and best tool for the job but if you're a hobbyist making 
a one-off project,  patience and elbow grease are acceptable substitutes.
