A Pictrue is worth a thousand word's.
I built this with my first GRR contents are : 4 rotery switch's and 8 diode's for turnout control and 6 double pole- double throw -center off switch's for block control.
DNRR_V9 control pannel will have 1 rotery sw and 9 block control. I'm going out today find some 3 or 4 pole-double throw-center off switch's for the new pannel
Tempory control pannel before the switch's were cleaned up/ rewired
The head is gray, hands don't work , back is weak, legs give out, eyes are gone, money go's and my wife still love's Me.
That first photo looks like the wiring behind one of our HO scale club layout's control panels.
OK Dave, just how were you able to break into my work room an snap a picture of my junk drawer?
Having done block control in HO, N and G(ummi) I understand the concept and have experience in the routing of wires and switches. Just what tha h is this? Reminds me of the crows nest every time I try to use an open face reel when fishing!

Oh man that looks like some jobs I been on......sad to say
My Dad tought me pull just enought and clip just enought then use a spade crimp or weld it on and remember to zip tie it all off. Do I do this today, yes, makes it very slower and tanging lines are easier but I also "had" a wire ringer which mom sold some jack a$$ and some other tools of my Dads for $20.00...I was ***.

Toady's garage door does not open, he has a "step over" type door.
kstrong Yes, but will the garage door still open? Later, K
Who, mine? Yes, mom's will not cause she put a box under the door and forgot then it killed the gear.
Dad was going to get one for the center door but Walked On before he could.

Looks most broadcast stations I did telco repairs at. The amazing thing is a FCC licence was required to work at TV and Radio stations.

John, this pannel was scrapped,and striped of uasable part's. I built it 15 year's or so ago. If i remember it was done one switch at a time. and it worked with no problems.
Dave
Pops,
Course it worked! Why wouldn't it be here 15yr's later???
I know I did my share of them!!!!! But Dad jumped my case.
Can say it made me mad when others hooked up our gates at the request of the buyer. You should have seen the wires!!! They did no cutting. Sad.
Toad but Buckso calls me Turd
Where is the picture? I'm wiring up a couple of panels and would like to see what you did, or what happened to you <G>?
Sorry Dick, I'm using a tempory pannel with 8 switch's, since i started ver9 i've gone from 8 + 1 Block's to 11 plus 1 ( for the ridge line ) and I need to add a rotory switch for the one and only powered switch. And I am using Two power supply's.
This is the current power/switch configuration .
