Randy,

Wouldn't you think that if Axiom made the bracket so that there was only 2 or 3 inches of clearance that it would be okay? Especially since this isn't exactly an inexpensive bracket to begin with. I seems like it wouldn't cost much more money to make 5 or 6 inches of clearance.

How did you make your DIY brackets? I have can choose from Lowe's, Home Depot or Menard's for supplies.
