Alco RS-3, RSD-4, RSD-5, RS-32 and RS-36 Front Handrail Bending Jig – $7.95

This bending is for HO scale Alco RS-3, RSD-4, RSD-5, RS-32 & RS-36 locomotives.  It works by bending the tabs upward and then bending .015″ phosphor bronze (Brass is also acceptable) around the folded tabs.  The tabs have a recess for the wire to sit in while bending.  This holds the wire in place.  There are 3 holes on each side at the bottom for folding the wire down into.  This is where the wire would turn into the models pilot.  For handrails that are continuous across the top (no drop step) it is recommended that you run the wire through the stanchion as you are bending it.  There will be no easy to run the wire through the hole in the stanchion once the wire is bent into a finished handrail.
