Brian,
As I recall neither of my brackets were cut out, I had to do both.
And yes, both W16's do have to be cut out as the illustration shows.
As a precaution make sure you are not working on the mating part that
is shown further back in the book in the area I mentioned in the last email.
The parts are similar enough that they could be mixed up.
Regards,
John
