Hint: You can use the poles for most of the prototypical situations. The catenary-wire is glued or soldered to the registration arms in zig-zag type. The carrying wire is glued or soldered on top of the arm (e.g. with the rounded ones) or inside the arm (e.g. the straight arms). It keeps the catenary-wire allways on tension. So one time you use the outside holder, the next is the inside holder, and so on. When everything works, just cut off the unneccessary parts. The filigrane parts are not recommended for real work. For detailed information, you should have a look into the excellent brochure of Sommerfeldt.Seitenanfang

poles and traverses - kits
Poles and traverses are the base for a solid catenary. You will find here the excellent parts of Sommerfeldt- and N-Track for your own constructions.

Hint: You need poles for nearly every kind of fixture. Only rare situations are known, when the catenary is fixed at a building or another point. For more than one track, traverses are used. The long ones are not bended yet, but it is easily done, because the bendingline is etched into the part. Seitenanfang
