Greetings helpful collective wisdom minds!
Hopefully Friday, I will begin some more electrical work for my Uff Da Line HO layout. To that end I plan to:
-- Install and wire a PSX Electronic Circuit Breaker Board.
-- Wire up a 16 VDC 5A power supply for the electromagnet uncouplers.
-- Install and wire up a circuit board timer to give a monitored "on" time for the 16 VDC to the electromagnet coils, as per Larry Puckett "The DCC Guy."
-- install and wire up a buck board to drop from the 16 VDC to 12 VDC for the power supply to the timer boards and other to-be-added-later 12 VDC items.
Should be fun - - and vexing - - but needed.
So my question to your collective experience/wisdom is this: How do you mount Circuit boards under your layout?
Please help me with suggestions AND pictures if available for:
horizontal or vertical orientation?
Separate 'cabinet/drawer'
double-sided foam or screws
How much 'slack' for maintenance?
other that I have not thought of
Thanks as always!
