<div dir="ltr">You might have a tough time bending suitably thick sheetmetal with a vice, hammer and torch. Off the top of my head I'm supposing something like 1/4" mild steel would be appropriate, but I might be all wet, and you might could get away with something thinner than you could otherwise if the bracket is relatively tall.<br>
