I went to another estate sale today. The house was small and held nothing of interest. I stood in line to get in, and it was a waste of time. The garage was different. Apparently this was a different person. There was a lot of nerd stuff. I picked up some magnetic window switches which I thought might work on the turntable. Unfortunately they are normally open. I did get some 18 ga speaker wire for $1.
I did some other running around. Mail (the loco and station came today), grocery, pet store (cat food), Home Dept (Dremel), and Hobby lobby (glue). Lucy made out big time. Two people at Home Depot gave her cookies, and the lady at the pet store gave her two. I also ran the dog a bit at a park near the estate sale. She didn't do much, but then it was really hot.
When I got home I used the new glue to finish the viaduct pillars. I also built up a track stop from the bass wood I bought. It came out OK, but I'm not much of a scratch builder. I think I need more practice. After they dried I measured the pillars for height on the layout. I'll cut them tomorrow with the new Dremel accessories.
