1978 Ford Bronco Fabrication Sketch - 3/16" Steel Plate Bracket Templates & Cut List
Hand-drawn not-to-scale fabrication sketch of 3/16-inch plate brackets with dimensions and a cut list of strap and angle stock.
This document is a hand-drawn fabrication sketch (blueprint-style) photographed from paper, uploaded to a 1978 Ford Bronco gallery. It is explicitly noted as "all 3/16" plate, Not to Scale." The sketch shows two plate templates, each marked "2 of" (quantity two each). The left template is a rectangular plate 5" wide by 9" tall with a 1" hole located 1.5" from the bottom edge and 1.5" from the right edge. The right template is a shorter plate, 5" wide with a height dimension that appears to read 4 1/2", also with a hole positioned 1.5" from each of two adjacent edges. Below the diagrams is a materials cut list: two pieces of 3" x 5" x 3/16" strap, two pieces of 3" x 4" x 3/16" strap, and 30" of 2" x 3/16" angle iron. The document contains no vehicle-specific labels, part numbers, or dates, so its exact application (likely a bracket or mount fabrication project for the owner's Bronco) is not stated on the page itself. A reader can learn the plate dimensions, hole locations, and total steel stock needed to reproduce the parts.

Frequently asked questions
- What thickness of steel does this fabrication sketch call for?
- All parts are specified as 3/16" material — the plates are 3/16" thick, the straps are 3/16", and the angle iron is 2" x 3/16".
- What are the dimensions of the larger plate in the drawing?
- The larger plate is 5" wide by 9" tall with a 1" hole located 1.5" from the bottom edge and 1.5" from the side; two of these plates are needed.
- What steel stock is on the cut list?
- 2 pieces of 3" x 5" x 3/16" strap, 2 pieces of 3" x 4" x 3/16" strap, and 30" of 2" x 3/16" angle.
- Is the drawing dimensionally accurate to scale?
- No — the sketch is explicitly labeled "Not to Scale," so the written dimensions must be followed rather than measuring the drawing.
- How many of each plate are required?
- Both plate templates are marked "2 of," meaning two copies of each plate are needed.
