#Find your controller box and locate its mounting holes on the back. Use spray paint to spray a nice wet coating over the hole locations, then press your 6x15 plate to it, square and so that the top hole is about a 1/2" away from the top, to mark the hole locations. Center punch them.
#Drill the 1/4" holes for the controller box. You can drill them a little bigger (up to 5/16") if you'd like, as it's difficult to get the holes perfectly aligned).
#Punch 13/16" holes as shown at the bottom of the plate.
#Weld the 2" flatbar perpendicularly to the plate on the back. The bottom should be flush with it, so the top hole for the controller is still accessible.
