Some more pictures, with the plastics starting to be installed. The final parts orders should arrive in the next 2-3 days.
I bent my first wire gate today. It was easier than I thought it'd be, but wasn't simple by any means!
I may attempt this gate again tomorrow night. This one is functional, but isn't as pretty as an original. The paperclip that was somewhat misformed in this bracket just wouldn't cut it.
Plastics being test fit, protectors should be here in about 2 days
