Can't seem to figure out how to link to a video. Can't remember seeing anyone else do it either, so maybe its disabled. Anyway, here's a link to see how the cut bar works:

Burl,

I had a customer do this in HO in 1973.

Satisfactory. And you do plan to color the couplers with metal blackener, right? -- Russ
