From drawing to object

I needed to redesign a part, but didn't have it in my hands so I found the manual and took a picture to sketch then pice it together. 
This was a PNG file, not a vector, so I was a little skeptical of it's accuracy  but it seemed "close enough." After sketching, then popping it out (aprx 5mm) I took each pice and pieced them together. 

The result was about 80% there. 


And left room for minor ajudstments 

You can see the of pieces here. 

The end goal is to now modify the pice to add a new component. Which is turning out to be more of the opposite of what I started out to do (make a holding structure) but to put all the components in and then make the Stand.
