 Bottom right     Small hand formed brackets.
The small brackets position the magnet locator panels, and may be used later for mounting Halbach Arrays for lateral acceleration experiments.  They should also add rigidity to the rotor when the corresponding back panel is fitted. The elongated holes may provide a means of limited spin testing using compressed air.
