The ROCK 3.0: Progress Report Halloween 2013

This morning, I had some unexpected extra time to work on the layout.  I got out my Dremel-knock off tool and the bits.  I gapped all the PC boards on the gantlet track and tested.  All good!  I then took a wire brush looking attachment and cleaned up all the solder joints.  It looks really good now!  I then cut a bunch of wood ties in preparation for gluing later this evening.

This evening before Trick-or-Treating, I glued the wood ties to the gantlet track.  Later I went back and trimmed the ties.

I got out the Boulder Creek Engineering WeighStation.  This will need to be installed before I install the gantlet track.  By the end of the weekend, I predict an operating scale!
