I will be using on set of contacts to input to a NCE Mini Panel which will then send the command to throw a Tam Valley Singlet servo to change the signal. At the same time another set will input a to an NCE AIU and then into JMRI where it will chow the signal state on the PC monitor.<br />There would still be spare contacts to switch LEDs etc. if necessary.<br />PMG key switches are great if a little large.<br /><br />Ray PRay Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624865987062727847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074654920193695267.post-30568029858255736392018-10-12T17:54:18.939+11:002018-10-12T17:54:18.939+11:00Hi Ray,

Have you written up anything about how you intend to use those switches and how you have wired them up?<br />Thanks.<br />regards,<br />BradBrad H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02544959875002888806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074654920193695267.post-53794222506425134352018-05-27T20:22:06.856+10:002018-05-27T20:22:06.856+10:00Hi Ray

After seeing your write up on the Trestle, I think I will need to consider taking the same path for the Timber Trestle that I would like to eventually place on my Tumbarumba layout.<br /><br />Regards<br />Peter B Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320280996169005004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074654920193695267.post-60326714933029461792018-05-24T15:56:03.361+10:002018-05-24T15:56:03.361+10:00Ben, yes the windows, doors, corbels, etc. are 3D ...Ben, yes the windows, doors, corbels, etc. are 3D printed, they are on my Shapeways Signals Branch shop along with other parts I used on the building.<br /><br />https://www.shapeways.com/shops/signalsbranch?section=HO+Werris+Creek+Station&s=0<br /><br />If you search my Bylong blog for Werris Creek you will find more information.<br /><br />http://bylong.blogspot.com.au/search?q=Werris+Creek<br />Ray Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624865987062727847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074654920193695267.post-53533202979942183752018-05-24T15:50:17.074+10:002018-05-24T15:50:17.074+10:00David V, "pity about the flouro lights"?...David V, "pity about the flouro lights"?

Regarding the Slaters brick sheets have you thought about cutting around the mortar lines on the sheet to create a staggered join instead of just a straight butt joint? Tedious but may give a better finish.
