They also come in two variations. The one's I got
have a 9 volt battery compartment. They also
come with a two AA battery compartment.


To start with I needed a pc board to hold the
components. I used a perf board to get the shape
of the area. Once I have the components in their
final place I will etch a circuit board for easier
installation


I needed some small N.O. switches for the
binding circuit. An old TV with front
push buttons severed the purpose well.


I mounted the switch on two wire wrap posts
soldered into the perf board. Drilled a hole in the
end and glued in a piece of plastic tubing. A piece
of plastic rod and a small pad glued on the end
to make contact with the button.


Plunger installed.


Front panle with plunger installed.


I didn't like the looks of the plastic plunger so
I made one out of brass.


Assembled and installed. Much better.


These are the seperate parts for making a custom
reversing switch. Brass bar with channel milled
in pc board, two micro switches, and a activation
lever.


The two micro switches and the back side of
the pc board with 8 #61 holes.


Switches mounted in board.


Soldered and mounted in body of reverse switch.
