Looked around the site and found a few fixes. Used the google machine as well and decided to do my own RE version. What is RE you ask? Redneck Engineering! 

Using the latest  version of CAD, I whipped up these templates for the back and sides. 




If you have never seen it before - Cardboard Aided Design - its a thing!

Put a BS cover on it and the rear brackets made a good place to secure the back portion of the sides. You can see on the template (upper back corner) there is a notch that slips down inside.

Drill a couple of holes and insert screws and there you have it. 




Side and back pieces are made of thin aluminum that I cut with tin snips and used a belt sander to round the edges.






I may paint them but odds are if you were to walk in my camp you will see it just like it is.
