I manually machined these billet parts on a 64 year old milling machine

That looks like a lot of work! I really love that you use such an old manual machine.

How you found the fact that original brake carrier are cast iron?

[@thebrojectlist6881]

i tried to modify the original bracket, it had the granular structure of cast iron and really hard to weld. Also most parts on cars are cast iron (or steel/alloy). its fast and cheap to produce.
