Holes equally spaced through ally, end covered with foam incase of escape loco's This picture should have been up 1st, as nothing on right hand end. http://www.clickRALPH
Hi Pete, I drilled the holes through Ally in situ, whilst tracks were aligned, By removingbolt then sliding through a same diameter drill bit rotating by fingers and lightly tappingwith a small hammer to make a mark. then slide fiddle yard out make mark larger with a center punchand drill, repeated five times,RALPH
Thank's for comments Kim and SMR ChrisKim the next job like you mentioned will be track laying at the other end sometime soonhttp://www.clickRALPH
