Hi Paul

I would strongly suggest making up a template box out of cardboard to figure the bending sequence and to be sure the battery you plan to use will actually fit.

My Pat 12 battery box was missing the hold down bracket. It is very hard to get the battery in and out because the case is tight fit. My solution was to put a length of seatbelt webbing under and around the battery as a grab strap.

Also because of past experience with battery terminals hitting the top of metal battery boxes, I've covered the top of the + battery terminals with a rubber sheeting.

Cheers Phil
