   Here is a small review about the motorization of 9V switch points prepared originally in French for friends from Freelug. With the help of Didier Enjary for translation, Gaël Frazier for a final proofreading and Jean-Louis Bergamo (webmaster of Freelug) for publication. Thank you guys :-) http://www.freelug.org/article.php3?id_article=186...
Thanks very much for the comprehensive analysis, Philippe.

A compendium like yours inspires us all to build other designs, incorporate new ideas with our existing ones, and move the whole effort forward. After reading your reviews, my curiousity’s piqued towards another semaphore design based on Chris Alano’s drive mechanism, with further extension of the drive lever.

Here’s a link to my latest design, which I used at our last show: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/ejmcglynn/recipmotor/update-10-17-03/switch.jpg

...and the associated .mpd file: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/ejmcglynn/recipmotor/update-10-17-03/switch.mpd

Credit goes to Chris Alano for the drive mechanism.

Hi Ed,

This is the simplest power unit I’ve ever seen! I’ll have to build it ASAP. Thanks a lot,

Philippe.
