And now in color, with the resin tinted as it will be for the final product.

Okay that is too cool. David, one suggestion, include a 2nd pair with each throw. I can totally see customers loosing one or breaking them. Again, what an incredible detail!

Don't worry, there will be spares.

David, don't take this the wrong way, but that switch stand looks so much better than the turnout it's serving...  This would look really good with a hand laid Z turnout.

Well, that's actually closer to the target audience. I used the roadbed switch as a prop because I didn't have a handlaid switch handy for the photo op.

For promotional material, you should consider rigging it up to this masterpiece:

(That might require destroying the existing stand though... maybe not so desirable.)

That's why I didn't use it.

Of course, there's always my Nn3 switch...
