Reply to "Upgrading Railking 2-8-0 siderods to scale ones"

Here they are with the loco painted.  These are the MTH drivers from the 2-8-0.  The tread can easily be chucked in a lathe and turned to open up the spokes.  I didn't use the screws the screws that MTH uses to hold the rods to the drivers.  I drilled out the treads for the screw and inserted a piece of 1/8" brass rod with the center drilled and taped for an 0-80 screw.  A small aluminum washer made from aluminum stock hold the rod to the driver.
