  1. Assemble the parts as shown.
  2. Weld together and and modify the object with the node edit tool. Use the pencil and node edit tools to create the rounded triangle shape.
  3. Combine (Ctrl+L) and fill with white.

Apply a horizontal mirror to a duplicate of the lever and drag right.

To create the front lever set, duplicate both levers and move them off to the side.

To achieve the off angle appearance apply an 8 degree horizontal skew to both levers.

Convert both of these objects to isometric side views by applying the following from the Transform Docker. 86.6 horizontal scale and a 30.00 degree vertical skew.
Rotate both objects 110.00 degrees fill with white and use the Extrusion tool to apply an extrusion to each of the levers with the following settings: Back parallel, x = 0.00 y=-0.15, VP locked to object and vanishing point relative to object center. Rotate back –110 degrees and render as shown. Group (Ctrl+G) each lever together.
