Does anyone have the updated Mouser part #'s for the rotary switches needed to construct a GRS board, the one shown in message 6665 have been discontinued. ...

Group: I kinda think that if we are trying to fail safe a movable bridge that the steps are: Confirm that the area around the bridge is clear. Set all...

I believe the original request was what is the minimum cost to perform this function. Ideally we would have the operator push a request to lift button. after...
I have two lift bridges which close "lever" switches when they are in place. They cost about $1-2 dollars each at Radio Shack. If they are not in place the...
Yes the original idea was how to get the most for the least. I was asking and what I've heard seems to point that the DCCOD will show as vacant if the track...
Someone, somehow, will eventually find a way to back a long train into the open gap. Or worse, open the bridge while a train is passing through or is already...

Jim, I know I am coming in late on the thread, however Dave Metal and I found what we think is a pretty good process for adhering surface mount resistors to...
Ken: Your unsceniced location suggests out of sight. I would add a couple little safety features. 1. In the safety stop track section, don't just open the...
Gordon: Hadn't thought of the Urethane glues that's something new to try. With a very tiny dot the expansion shouldn't be a problem... One last tip for those...
Don, Group: <Tongue in cheek> Since this was posted in C/MRI I just had to assume that detection and some signal or other was mixed in with the bridge being...
My guess to the bemusement of many on this group, is that the extent you take a project is subject to your needs and desires. Our club ran trains using cab...
Hi, Gordon Gorilla glue, eh? I've used that to glue together just about anything from busted birdfeeders (knocked one over and it broke into five pieces,...
Don't use it for gluing down roadbed, or any sheet to sheet construction. The swelling causes all sorts of cavities and high spots, even with tons of weight...
The trick that that stuff is to use sparingly but even then it can unpredictable. I did a few resistor wheelsets with good old fashioned Walthers "Goo." Goo ...
Good day all, We will soon start renovating an older building as our new home. In the process I intend to wire most of the building for a computer network...

You can use a variety of serial RS232/485 to ethernet converter pairs to extend a serial connection over a local network or even the Internet. Search for terms...
