GNRi1959 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Anyone know what is the correct sizes of copper/brass tube plus piano wire to make manual point controls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broithe Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I've use wire in plastic tubing, as intended for model aircraft - probably a bit more reliable if you need to bend things. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishswissernie Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) You can still get the traditional wire in tube from lychett Manor who acquired the old Gem Mercontrol system. As you are living in the UK Tony there shouldn't be any "import" problems. They stopped using the copper tube many years ago when Cornard (now defunct) started manufacturing the same type of system but using plastic type tube. Address/web site on the photo.
