You need:
spikes?
pine board 1x4? real small needle nose pliers? wood ties? wood glue? track gauges? rail? rail joiners? rail cutters? 6 inch mill file? |
(micro engineering ... smallest they make)
(local lumber store ... no homasote... no cork) (radio shack has em) (need a bag of regular and turnout[long]) (yellow glue [alaphatic resin] ... hardware store) (we have them here - Rollee Holders) (code 55 for HO - HOn3 is 75 lb. rail fits all flanges) (micro engineering ... hobby shop) (flush cutters at radio shack ... or PBL or Zuron) ( regular file ... at hardware store) |
I think that's all .... as I do the steps I might add something but
this will get everybody started.
Any questions? hatch@railwayeng.com
