If we knew the cost of a set of steel molds, what if we did a GoFundMe to pay for the other molds for the different shank lengths? I'd kick in a few bucks toward the cost if it meant they would stay a

Just out of curiosity, how do the bulk packs get metered out to get 144 of each piece? Nathan Rich

Frank is stopping production? I haven't read anything that suggests that. Source please? Nathan Rich

Did you see the files on the Sergent website? Very cool stuff. These couplers look great in NO scale and will certainly be stellar in 1:8. Nathan Rich

I was thinking of upscaling them to 1:32 and using my 3D printer to make a few. I've been thinking of doing some No. 1 gauge trains. This makes things interesting... Nathan Rich

The dummy couplers are great for say between A and B units of a permanent set. I have a set of Alco FA's with an FB and it is very happy with dummy couplers between them. Also keeps people from breaki

We're here to help along the way! Nathab

Sharon and E couplers will interchange. There is also a +.100 shank E head coupler available on the website. Just using E's will definitely change your opinion on Kadee couplers. Nathan Rich

There's something about that that had always bothered me, I personally think that On3 and On30 should use the same height, since most On30 is lazy On3. All this Colorado outline equipment built on a c

You shouldn't have any issues. There is, however, sometimes a little piece of flash that you need to nip off on that horn. As long as you watch four pieces of Walnut husk as you assemble you shouldn't

I use a knife edge to gently pry things apart, super glue is not permanent. Just follow the lines and be gentle. Nathan Rich

I just use Kadee boxes for compatible shanks, #262 Nathan Rich
