Post by: DJM Dave on October 28, 2013, 06:25:28 PM
A right and left hand code 55 Peco curved point spare for swap or buy?
I have shed loads of medium and long if they are any use as a swap?

Sorry mods if this in in the wrong place, feel free to move it.
Cheers

Hi NewportNobby,
I've mailed Stu and it looks like I've got a swap lined up.
Thanks for responding though.

All my business work at the moment keeps me tied to the kitchen table designing etc, so I'm going to ask you guys another question.
Anyone know where I can get paxolin strips from to solder my rails to at the baseboard ends?
I'd normally get them from shows but as I'm not out at any for a while, mail order would be the perfect answer.

Anyone?
Cheers
Dave

Hi Dave
     Have you tried Maplins for your Paxolin sheet? or Squires Tools.

Being lazy I'd prefer the pre-cut strips like sleepers you sometimes see on sales stands at shows.  :dunce:

Justtried a Google, plenty of sleepers and strip or 4mm, if it's for baseboard  joins then shouldn't be too difficultto cut in half, otherwise 2mm association should do some.

Dave,

I have a couple of spare strips I can post you. They are about 5mm wide , They can be cut smaller using a razor saw or cutting disk in a mini drill. Makes a mess though , you may end up in dog house if the kitchen gets covered in dust!

If you are a 2mmSA member then they do pre-milled pcb end pieces with several sleepers on each to match the Easitrac (and thus also of course the N equivalent)
