Ron, that would make it a lot easier without the pressings. I notice that there is also a difference in the amount of notches that are not in the bracket that is bolted on top of your set or perhaps that particular part might be a repro.
It does make you wonder why there had to be so many variants of anything when the goal was the same at the end. It just seemed to create work that wasn't really necessary.
After considerable time thinking how and what I could use to rivet the end parts on, I ended up using bullet head nails cut down and pressed into place and they did work very well and have the same appearance and does the same job as the original. I guess I'm about half way now.
