CREATE THE PERFECT SCALE G CODE 332 GARDEN RAILWAY SUPPORTS!

CREX 5/8" 18 Gauge Stainless Steel Pins are a really good corrosion resistant Code 332 rail crutch for hand-laid garden (outdoor) G gauge railways. Place the pins about 1/8" below the in the vise and bend them with a hammer and a cold 3/4" chisel. Finish the bend by pressing the hammer against the jaws of the vise to make 1/2-inch-long spikes with 1/8-inch heads while holding the rail. on cedar sleepers. Neither of these pins broke at a bend. The "tips" must be carefully cut individually with a razor blade! Cedar sleepers can be pre-drilled with a small 1/32" or #68 bit. These "spikes" last practically forever and cost $0.0085 each, as opposed to the boxed "studs" which are $0.02 each cost and are NOT stainless steel and will rust quickly if exposed to spirit.
