Hi! there, I hope some of you clever people out there can help me with my problem. On Sunday last I purchased three GWR Semaphore signal's from Ratio
I started assembling the kit's and my problem reared it's head allmost as soon as I opened the boxes, the different part's are so minute and my finger's are on the learge side, and I had difficulty placing the return spring in place,so I've abandoned the exercise untill help arrives.....PLEASE......PLEASE.

I know exactly how you feel, I am using the LNER Lattice ones and they are so fiddley it untrue.... All I could do is sit in a quiet room and persevere. I must say the end result is well worth the frustration.

Hi All

I find the Kadee Micro trains coupler tweezers very handy for fiddly little bits as they will hold something
without having to clamp the tweezers together yourself.

saves hours of frustration
