Handbrake cables touching chassis rail

[skov]

Just thought I'd bring some closure to this one.
I know you both said it was probably ok, but I just wasn't happy and had to change it.
Not just because of the cables touching the rail, but also because the plate itself bowed significantly when I applied the handbrake, and would have got in the way of where I want to bring the brake and fuel pipes through the tunnel.
Here's what it looks like now, and this time I checked the cables wouldn't touch the rail before I welded it in place!

Well spotted
I really must tidy my garage!

I bought that particular guitar off my brother-in-law, who claimed some rubbish about it being an Ibanez Destroyer with a Gibson (or was it Jackson?) neck or something.
It's the same shape as a Destroyer, but I suspect it's some cheap far-eastern jobbie.
Whatever it is, it plays and sounds like cr&p which is partly why it ended up in the garage collecting dust!
