Hang them off the back of the upright

in the book it says dics brakes upright and for drums turn them length ways.
for discs i have seen them at an angle?

Have a look at enoch's fine work here http://www.deepfolly.co.uk/2.html
he turned the plate round. I don't believe there is an exact angle to turn it, just turn it round as per his pics to give a little more clearance.

Having one of the threaded holes at 12 o'clock works, I used the top right hole.

I agree that is a good way of doing it, but beware of n/s and o/s as they are different!
