Hoping someone could fab up somethin quick..i would do it myself but i moved to Montana for school and have no shop to work in anymore

..its a pretty simple coverplate, its for a snowperformance pump..all it involves is bending aluminum and thats it..here is what i was thinking

all the bends are 90 degrees the second picture is what it look likes from the top..tell me if i need to describe it better

ill pay for the aluminum and shipping...HOPE SOMEONE can help..the thickness of the aluminum could be around .063 or .080 either one just a thin plate would work

Where in Montana do you live? I travel around Montana for work and there is a steel foundry where i live so I could probably get one done cheap for you.

Funny, I spent yesterday in Bozeman. I'll be passing through there tomorrow so I'll see if I can come up with something in my shop today for you.

Oh yeah, you are missing the height dimension. How tall does this need to be?

I haven't gone down to the hardware store to see how much a small piece of aluminum is, shouldn't be much though. I'll see what I can fab up today.

I just checked at ACE Hardware and they don't have any sheet aluminum. I'll have to wait till Tomorrow when the Foundry is open. I left your drawings with a friend and he's going to get your cover plate done this week. I'll be passing through Bozeman again next Monday (the 26th) so let me know if you can wait that long.
