Step 4Creating the Handle
The handle will be attached to the longer piece of the hinged two-part track inset from step 3. You may want to consider using a long hinge, such as shown in Fig 7, Image.
You attach one portion of the hinge to the track inset via rivets (two drilled holes of appropriate sizes), or screws. Once again, my rivets were .125 in, with .133 drill bits.
The other side of the hinge can now be fitted with whatever handle design you would like. I bolted on a piece of spare aluminum and covered it in foam tape for a T-handle.
