Reply to "My Latest Upgrade - Weaver Brass 8444"

Allan,

Today I got the magnets installed and the reed switch.  I used CA to install the magnets after roughing up the inside surface of the wheel with sandpaper.  Worked great.  Initially I used CA for the reed switch and added JB Weld to hold it.  Thanks for the information earlier.

 

Instead of using tape to mark the 90 degree spacing, I used liquid 'white out' (yeah, they still make that stuff, only costs .90$ now!) to mark the outside of the wheels.  Makes it easy to visualize 90 degrees and finding a 'spoke' for the magnet to adhere too.  Then, I marked the inside edge of the driver with 'white out' so I knew exactly where to place the magnet.

 

Though I have a long way to go on this project, I did manage to check the chuffs/commands/sounds of the ERR boards.

 

I have a super chuffer, may install it also.
