Karl, they sell brake spoons, y'know. http://goo.gl/0Gb4l
Did yours look like that when you were done? g
I cut mine in half when I needed a shorter one for an import truck
with top adjuster once, and it turned out to be very handy for
everything at that length. I most often used the angled side rather
than the curved one.

Na, that wouldn't work. You got less than 1/2" from the little long
hole to the fork mast. I made a right angle brake spoon, I guess.
