First I love the new jigs for the curved and straight track assembly.

I noticed you have a combo jig for doing all three catagories: Main, Branch & Siding.

Have you thought of having a simular jig for the single style, like the AF-HO-A-ME83-M, but having three of the same on one jig. :?: Set up is time comsuming and doing the soldering is quick when finally ready. Having three sections to do at once may speed up the assembly process, and the price is well within reason for three at once, versus the single section you currently have.

Just food for thought, and can't wait till all the new stuff is loaded and working.


Kurt :D

So are you asking for an assembly jig with three identical sections on it? eg: 3x HO code 83 straight sections with mainline tie spacing? I can only solder one joint at a time and could probably only set up one section at a time. There may be some time saved with the heating time of the soldering iron, but I don't personally see much time saved with your idea. Anyway, each to their own.
