Album: Manual turnout throws

Rear view showing the DPDT wiring and Masonite attachment plate. Electrical connections have all been soldered since this photo was taken.

The dowel is 1/4", purchased at Menards. I'm pretty sure the knobs were from Hobby Lobby.

The piano wire is .032 (K&S stock #1602, for connecting the dowel to the switch paddle) and 3/64 (K&S #8161, for the throw, and to connect the throw to the switch paddle).
