Source for S1 brake line clamps on trailing arms

[robinlarry]

I need to replace the brake line clamps that were riveted onto the trailing arms. Any idea of the original source or a reproduction source?

I believe the original production technique was "take a sheet of metal so thin that it can hardly support its own weight. Slightly thicker than silver paper, but not as thick as st. Cut out a small rectangle using those plastic scissors you give to nursery kids. Get a grown-up to drill a big brake pipe hole in one end, and an ickle rivet hole in the other. Then bend it in the middle, taking care not to bend it twice because it will break. Your precision brake mounting component is now complete."

Shouldn't be too hard to replicate this process. You could even use stronger materials like the bottom of a pie dish or the lid of a baked bean tin, for added strength and durability. If you feel really Bob-the-Builder-like, you could even use real metal like a bit of shelf bracket or something similar.

I'm sure there'll be an abundance of brake pipe clips and suppliers at SCH 2015 / Kit Car Show, even greymrj's favourite Car Builder Solutions should have something
