I just posted 3 photos of an E27 motor strut on the Deck Rigging and Layout Gallery. They were made from standard aluminum plate and tubing. Here are the dimensions: The dimensions of the plate are 1/4 X 6 1/2 x 5 1/2. The dimensions of the tube are 2 x 2 x 16. I was able to buy the tube from an aluminum and metal supply store and the plate from a scrap metal store.
