Default 11" fastbrakes adapter - anybody got pics?

Anybody got pics of the fastbrakes 11" adapter? I want to do something similar for a class I'm taking now and wanted to see how the pros do it.

Edit: I have these pictures but they are not very high resolution.

It would be great if you could measure the distance it moves the caliper bracket out, its either that or I have to measure off the hubs themselvs.

If your going to copy and make them you should make sure they are strong so they don't brake!!!

besides fast brakes kit is $160 and comes with your metal hub rings,brackets,and hardware!

Who said I was copying them? I had this idea before I heard about this kit, and just recently became aware of it. The only measurement that would be the same on mine is the distance that the caliper is moved outwards. I fully intend on designing an original part, as I have to do all the research and calculations myself.

Well where are you going to get some knuckles to measure? No one has EX knuckles laying around.

I think V-monster is doing more as a project to see if he can do it for a class rather than trying to reproduce them for mass marketing. Also some of the greatest inventions have come from improvements on something that already existed. Hence something everyone has in there house....a microwave.

I was going to post drawings of my design on here in case someone wanted to have a machine shop make them one, but I guess that would be copying somebody.
