Hi guys,
Just trying to fit a decoder into a N-gauge split chassis loco.
Virtually finsihed, the only problem is connecting the red and black wires to each half of the chassis.
There is no room for wires, although I could file a groove into the block, but where to attach them is a mjor problem.
I've read that someone who converted a split chassis managed to clean the black powder coating off and solder direct to the chassis!!
I find this hard to believe, the solder just wouldn't stick, I think you would need to braze the wires to it!!
Any suggestions, is it possible to solder to a chassis?
Cheers
