    Glueing Foam Board to Benchwork

    Do you still work at Menards? Look for the cheapest construction adhesive you can find, read the tube, and find one that says it will work on foam or insulation board or stuff to that nature. The cheap ones (like I buy:thumb:) are usually cheaper, and come in bigger tubes, look for PL200 or...

    HO Scale Operational Hi-Rail

    You want to hide the Hi-rail wheels? Why not give the model a set of N scale wheels behind the rear axle, and ahead of the front axle? You could give the N scale wheels longer axles and let them pick up the power and drive the model.

    Athearn bluebox+DCC= Unneeded wiring

    60103, the decoder is a very simple one, the cheapest I could find actually, just a complicated harness that came with it. I got the decoder installed, but the loco doesnt run the smoothest. But it has nothing to do with the decoder. I picked it up at a show for cheap. I did some work to the...

    Athearn bluebox+DCC= Unneeded wiring

    I putt DCC into an Athearn BB loco, and there are are many wires that go nowhere, can I simply cut them for ease of reassembly? The loco has no headlights, can I cut those wires out?
