Soldering Dropper Wires
Posted by Alan on 22nd September 2014 in Model Railways | ∞
Having acquired two 100m rolls of wire 10/0.1mm, one with red insulation, the other black, at a clearance price from Kyte’s Lights at the Woking REC show on Saturday, I’ve started to solder dropper wires from each of the pieces of track so that power supply is not reliant on just the rail joiners.
Once all sixteen pieces of track have two wires soldered to them, one of each colour, it’s time to lay them on the board, glue them down and drill the holes through for the droppers to join up with the main supply bus, which will come from 12V vehicle wiring loom wire, obtained from ebay and hopefully arriving later this week.
