With fastrak jigs you still have to make all the same
parts(actually more since they use pc board ties), all the jig does is
hold the rails in place while you solder them. It's really very easy
to assemble a switch directly onto wooden ties without a jig and thus
eliminate the soldered ties which are an extra step(you still have to
put wood ties down when installing fastrak built switches). If you
want to spend some money probably the most usefull thing they make is
the point and frog filing block which looks like it might save some
wear and tear on the fingers.....dave
