Yep, I have one in the train room and one by the computer where I do my 3D printing stuff and other stuff when the train room is cold...

If you are working with straight track I'd use these as the ties are all parallel vs. on an arc like the ones in this thread ...

Been very happy with these and they have handled all the wire I've run into on decoder installs.

I kind of started that way but switched to the above as it was a much quicker design and I only need to make one for each frog angle and the printing cost is zip. I could easily make different...

Please let me know. I haven't tried it and it will be a while unless I just throw some frogs together for the future. I'm thinking the solder joint will be out there far enough that it won't be a...

This is a jig/fixture, actually four of them, that will hold the frog points in place at the proper angle for soldering. The fixtures are for the following frogs: #4.5, #6, #8 and #10. Others could...

This is a jig/fixture, actually seven of them, that will hold the ties in place for gluing under a straight turnout that was created using a printable template. I was using a tape method shown ( HERE...

Thanks for the input. I just got sloppy and didn't snip off the wire past the hole. There isn't a reason it has to stick out at all. Also the 20 and 22 gauge easily bends out of the way. If the...

Another Update: A friend was able to pick me up 40 lbs. of Sakrete gray paver jointing sand. It is brushed between the joints of patio pavers and then wetted. After drying it sets up hard in the...

You can find all the files to 3D print this object and others on my thingiverse.com account ( HERE ).

The following are 3D printed wiring connectors. Primarily used to connect a larger gauge wire to smaller gauge wire or wires. They could be used at the end of the run for a larger gauge wire but I...

The last time I looked at DRO,s for my mill (10 years ago) I'd have spent $1000 for just the x-y axis. I just looked and can't believe how little they are now. Are these $170 (2 axis) to $250 (3...

Well wait until your eyes and brain are 77 guys, sorry for the mess-up but the procedure is close to the same and I did take the time to outline how to do it on my other post for the N scale model (...

Got the decoder installed and ran it. Decide to ....

This is a decoder install of a Digitrax DZ126IN decoder in an Atlas S2. The decoder has 6 pins and plugs into a socket on a light board on the S2. I thought this was going to be a piece of cake but...

OK, got mine off. It was a bear. I'll try and post pictures tomorrow. The hood and cab are separate and like the video says hard to get the cab off. I installed a DZ126IN and that wasn't so easy...

Found this nice video....

Thanks for asking as I have one that needs a decoder and now I know how, maybe??

Mine doesn't have a tab at the...

As an example I'd look at the following of some columns I did for a friend (n scale)..

Love the fence also. Do you have a link to the type of ribbon you are buying? Also I seem to remember you going into more detail on making fences like that but can't find it. If so do you have a...
