My version of glad hands... Work in progress

Thanks guys! Im still looking for better looking wire.. Making the coils is easier then i thought. (really it is!) i took the wire used a drill to wrap around brass rod, baked in oven @200* for 1 1/2 hours and wire stays coiled and has a spring back... pretty easy..

now the smaller plugs i was talking about are these

the 2 prong plugs are only 1/8" these are what im going to use on the lowboy for the neck to deck plugs. nice and small but easily added. only downfall like i said was price for them. $14 for only 2.. when i paid $3.19 per 2 plugs male and female, so 3 sets of males, and 3 sets of females were $18 total... I have endless supply of wire as i use mainly CAT-5 ethernet wire for most my lighting. ( i get rolls of 1000ft at work for free) the only thing i dont like about the smaller plugs are the wires.. they are not coated in one round "coating" they are just like speaker wires side by side and doesnt look right..... so im still searching for more options.

Yea i know i need to take a break working... that was just booked work time not including the hour commute each way all 6 days, so tack another 12 hours on that for drive time..... YIKES!!

Now i found these

they are 1/20th scale and look awesome but i cant figure out how i would be able to run both +/- through them...... unless i re cast them in resin, and carefully drill out and wire them... IDK... Like i said ive been looking

That looks good i been looking how to do a setup for screw drive hot and ground that would be good if the wires were a little bigger

Cab use any size wire or plug you needed too. I was going for small as possible
