Mate that's awesome work.
You really should make a couple up. I'd give you $50 for your time.

You mean loosening off?
If so, it has one nut welded on the front, with a free nut on the bolt which you tighten back up against the brace to lock it in position.

Thanks Alex.
Powdercoated and installed. Yet to road test, but im thinking to machine up a plastic cup to go between the BCS and master cylinder.

Thanks Paul.
Its hard to put a cost on it, as im not sure of the material costs and where you would get them in small quantities. Powdercoating one small item i think would be costly, cheaper if you had a few.
For the price people have got them for, it wouldnt be cost effective to make it yourself if you had to pay for all materials. Im lucky enough to have access to everything needed atm.
All up total cost was $2.95 for 2 longer M8 bolts.

After driving to work this morning, brake feel is much more solid under medium to hard braking.
Just machined up a nylon cup/spacer to go between the master cylinder and BCS adjustment bolt to finish it off.
