 Subject:  Track pads in placeList thread.  
  
 Date:  Aug 17, 2007
 From:  Paul A. Owen 
Here are some track pads in place. I've skipped a step and assembled the pads, which consist of a top, bottom and two full width pins. I assembled them directly on my bench. I did this because I was afraid I might have ended up gluing the pads to the jig!

Tasca recommends that only five pads be assembled at once. I don't see why more couldn't be positioned in the jig however.

A big advantage is apparent here, each pad will be spaced the correct distance apart.

Paul.
