The waukesha sub is built in 1200mm or 1600mm by 300mm modules that can all come apart. You know just in case.
Whilst I waited for more materials, all I had in stock that I could get done was fit connecting wires. These are for LEDs and are rated at 300v at 3A which is plenty for the DCC Bus that will have boosters and cut outs on each module. They have locating pins to ensure polarity and screw together so shouldn’t work loose.
Just a quick job each one goes into a screw terminal, the DCC bus wires will go into the other side of each terminal.
Tip: its always tempting to get the benchwork top on and start working things out but adding in wiring looms now when you can get to them without climbing under your layout is a must. So don’t rush and get the foundations in first, just like building a house.




Gordy, From my experience, I know you are correct however sometimes I just adopted the ready, fire, aim system of building. I am glad you are sharing to help others in their building journey. Ken
