Good work, Wayne! As everytime.
I can confirm the history with the drills. The drill breaks off three holes before the end of the work. The biggest problem is when the broken end gets stuck in the metal and one cannot remove it.
Here I will add a few pictures of my brakes however I build all levers, rods and claw fasteners myself.
First a few pictures of a K-brake - yet with a mistake. The connection from triple valve to train line is incorrect installed.

And second a AB-brake installed to a fishbelly frame.

All together including brake gear.

I hope that pictures can help.
