Work Day

[Scott A Smiley <sc.smiley@juno.com>]

WE had a very productive work session this week end.  Here are some of
the things that were accomplished.

The 072 switches were ground down to be smoother.
The crossovers were replaced on the switch modules and the alignment
improved.  It seems the alignment was creating most of the problems.
Siding alignments were adjusted.
Track E was added to the third corner module
Plugs were cleaned
Power was tested around the layout.  With just the wires, we are now
showing only a 1 volt loss around a 5x5 layout without jumper and
completion of the loop.  When we set up we should not even see this.
Several track problems were addressed, replaced track, solder joints,
adjust pins, adjust alignment,
Fixed wiring in some modules
Rebuilt one corner so legs can be fastened.
Refastened deck to frame on another corner.
Fix trailer door
make new legs.  We did not have enough to set up all of the modules.  If
you have not made legs for your modules, please do and bring any you have
at home.

there are some left over items form the most recent changes.  We can sell
the leftovers to club members or the public to help the Kitty some.
