I got all the superstructure primed today, then worked on the rudder pedal and brake a little. Put the right bolts to connect brake and rudder pedals. Castle nuts are called out by the drawing for this connection. Since free motion is needed for proper brake function, I just tightened the nut by finger, then secured it by cotter pin.



Here are the bolts, nuts callout
