How are the two outer plates joined to the center (3/4''plates?) Not the raised area around the flanges. I can't see if you bolted or pinned because the surface was sanded.

Ahh great question 9W. They are machined out of one solid chunk of aluminum with some amazing machining.

Well not really from one chunk. Actually the entire assembly has 5 parts and a lot of M2 screws. I had designed these parts so the screws are on the bottom so they would not be visible.

Take a look...
