HIDDEN SWITCH

HIDDEN SWITCHInstead of installing switches ship modelers often put on the deck bare conductors or put the bulky switches. Naturally, these alien items spoil the appearance of the model. At the station of young technicians of the city of Sochi for many years put on an improvised model of the microswitches (see figure), Tali. Then put the spring and install the bracket-holder. The deck clip is fastened with copper rivets. The switch is ready. Connecting the wires, you can test the reliability of his work.
