I just didn't feel like shooting a tournament today, so we didn't go. Instead I went out and did a little work on the layout. I figures to how to drill little holes in the pieces to anchor them with tack nails. I tried to solder wires to a piece of track, but it didn't work. I need to have a finer tip for the soldering iron. I also mad an inventory of the parts I'm going to need to wire up the layout. I only worked for a little while before it got too hot and I went inside.
When I got inside I went on ebay to look for components. I found everything I needed at pretty good prices. Of course the Chinese are cheaper, but I'm afraid I wouldn't get the shipment in time. I watched an auction for a loco like the one I bought yesterday. It went for a few dollars more than I paid. I also got a building for a relatively low price.
I searched for a bunch of other nscal stuff, but didn't see anything that was really a good deal. Some of the items that I'm watching are going up a lot days before the auction closes. That tells me I won't be bidding on them.
I tried to watch TV tonight, but I got bored. So I'm back on ebay looking for wire.
