Some work was done on creating a proper mount for the servo and high pressure ball valve to be rigidly connected. There is a finished drawing in the Documents section for the Servo Mount. The sets of photos below visually document the construction of the first vertical piece.
The only thing that is of worry at the moment is thin sections that run along the sides of the valve body. With an extremely high torque induced from the servo, it is of concern being that there is a sharp corner, that the aluminum mount might shear. A bolted bracket may be constructed to span the length of the bottom just to insure that the sides of the new part will not flex outward and shear.
