Howdy All.

Well Today I got the shock for the right side done.

Finished the core for the Air-to-Air.

Then I had to find something else to do so I made brake cans.













I have a big roll of 35 pair wire that I got in my RR layout days. I took a strand of that and pulled the wire out of it to make it pliable. I then took two 1/4" long pieces of .020" brass rod and glued them half way in each end. Then I drilled a hole with a #76 drill in the can and in the frame. I glued the brass rod in both. This gives the hose the flexibility it needs but helps give the connections more strength than if I just glued it to the side of the frame and the can.

Then a turn to the right and the left to check for clearance and movement, and all is good.
