    Fabricating a 45 degree offset switch plate

    I needed more space on the side of my handguard for a switch. I fabricated a 45 degree switch plate off a section of rail. 15 minutes with a file, and a couple on the sander. It gives me better ergonomics for switching my white light if I want to switch to it from the IR. On the top rail, I can reach the switch but my elbow is in an awkward position. Instead of moving my hand, I just move my thumb.

    I attached it with Gorilla double sided tape. Its already very strong, but I thought to secure it with one ziptie. I am testing it tonight doing drills for snagging.

    Clean work and it looks great!
