Good points... I haven't really looked at the logistics of it all yet. I do understand DC current cery well. Not an engineer by trade, but a retired aircraft electrician, and other electrical engineering tech. So, I understand what you are saying, and all are good points to consider when tinkering. I am going to take appart one of my spare turnouts though, and consider the conductive paint, if it could be used with some level of success. It might not, but it may lead to other ideas in the process. I think I may also consider tinkering with brass, or copper like mentioned above too. Actually, I may have some of that. I know they use self adheisive conductor on circuit board projects sometimes. I bet you can get that at Radio shack in rolls for not much. Anyway.. Just some initial thoughts, and was wondering if anybody has played with ideas to remedy stalling on the frogs..
To work I go, lol...
