Uncoupling Magnet - Installation

Here a couple of photos of the installation of the uncoupler magnets.

I used a 1" dia. Forstner bit to form a pocket for uncoupler magnet 


You will notice I used some styrene to space the magnet, as the balsa wood spacer start deforming from the magnets
 

Replaced the roadbed and painted the section removed black to mark the uncoupler magnets
