I have all the lights installed in the mill. One thing I wanted was being able to remove roofs etc. without having to unplug lighting. So I use some phosphorous bronze sheeting and also some Kadee coupler springs soldered onto bronze plates to make connections.
Here is the bottom of main roof section with leds installed on bottom of rafters.
Here are the 2 spring contacts on the bottom of the roof
Here are the two contacts on top of saw floor wall that contact with springs above
Here are the 2 contacts on the peak of the saw filers wall that is at the very top of mill
Here is the underside of the filers roof with LED's and you can see the 2 spring contacts in the foreground
The side office section that goes over trestle/track is a seperate piece that can be lifted off trestle.
I wired these two contacts to the side of the main roof of mill
and here is the side of the office that goes up against mill
And here are some photos with the mill put back together
Now I have to glue down boards in saw tables, put some figures in and install control levers on saw floor and put the details up in the saw filers room. Got give him something to do. Oh yea, add some saw dust
Masterful!
