Finishing up the brakes

Tried to finish the brakes tonight but did not quite make it.  I got this last brake line in and tightened up.

Attached the brake lines to the master cylinder.

Hooked up the brake light switch.

I also got the back brakes adjusted.  Here is a picture of me rehearsing how to adjust the brakes.  I am using the 1/4″ wrench to push the adjuster lever away from the star wheel then using a screwdriver to spin the wheel.  This worked pretty well but was a lot harder with the brake drum on so I could not see anything.  Anyway I got both back brakes adjusted before I ran out of time.  I will finish this next time then bleed the brakes.
