0040 Animating a Ratio signal in N gauge

Having had it for over a year I finally get started on assembling and animating a Ratio kit of a GWR semaphore signal. At the time of making this video it's still a work in progress.

Note: in the video I say I used 0.2mm brass rod, but it's actually 0.3mm - that explains why I couldn't push it into a brass tube of 0.2mm inner diameter!

Things I bought during the process of what I show in the video:

That drill press - I provide this link so you can AVOID buying it - I think it's terrible:
