The VA brackets I have are just 18 gauge sheet metal. Easy to make custom ones like those, all you need is snips to cut to size, a vise to clamp for the bend, and a drill to make the holes. Real easy. The hard part is being sure where those fasteners go - but it's probably more forgiving than you first think.
