How Much Metal do I Need to Leave on SSQA Mount?

Here is what I ended up with. It would have been great to order a bucket and simply plug it in, but you do what you have to.

I think 45" is a little small for the inside right-to-left dimension, but maybe engineers have their reasons.

I panicked after the picture opened and the plates were upside down.

Then I looked at the bucket and it is upside down also.

Looks like great progress! Hope you find the leak.
