    If you remember from back near the beginning, I cut a "temporary" seat back from 1/4" luan plywood. It's light enough and rigid enough to be made "permanent" so here's what I did. First I riveted two strips of 1/16" x 1" aluminum across the seat back area (arrows). Next, I split the "temporary" seat back down the middle. After painting both halves (both for appearance and preservation), I hinged them together with duct tape. Now I can easily remove & replace it for access to the motor & controller.
