Clockwork springs Please note: before you ask for replacement or repair, make sure that it "clicks" when you try to wind up the spring, even though the spring is expected to be broken and / or does not tighten!!! Only if it clicks the clock is repairable! Replacement: I'm able to provide NEW clockwork springs for loco clockworks. Spring length is 1370 mm and thus is good for at least 13 semi-windup rounds (as the original). The price 18.- €uro. Plus 10.- Euro if I should do the job. Repair of clockwork springs: Since the steel used for the clockwork springs is very hard - making it nearly impossible to machine or repair it, the manufacturers used to anneal the steel in order to drill / punch a hole of 2.4 mm into the "inner end" for fixing it to the wind-up wheel. And this is the position where most of the springs are broken today. The demounted spring can be repaired - "cold punching" is possible - just find somebody (I can) who is able to punch 2.4 mm holes. You may then replace the spring. This repair work - if possible (not all springs are worth being repaired) - results in a little shortage of the spring and subsequently the clockwork is not running as long as before. But this is a possibility to have "scrap" run again. Price for the replacement or repair works is 10.- €uro - plus actual shipping fees. I do ship clockwork springs - 29.- € incl. fees in Europe - please ask for overseas shipping fee!!!

Frame gap at clockwork locos |
|
Possibly you have experienced this fact already - a gap between frame and clockwork. At the front section of the loco causing the engine to derail especially on turnouts/switches. And you have asked yourself: How comes?
|
Reason for this is mainly a clockwork spring which stands out of the
clockwork housing. Main cause for this is the extensive forced wind up of
the spring - so the outer end of the spring tends to be wound up as well
and tries to "overcome" the arresting bolt. Thus the outer end first bends
upwards, gets stuck by the frame bottom and produces some force against
the frame. And thus creates that gap causing this prescribed trouble. |
Remedy: Remove the loco housing and try to refix / bend the spring - by means of a small screwdriver or similar - back to the appropriate position between the 2 housing sides (inwards - pictorially to the left). That may be done without separating the clockwork from the frame! Good luck.

Alteration / conversion of battery trucks 1015, 1502, 1520 and 1521
|
For several reasons the contacts inside the battery-tenders are often broken or rusty and thus no longer serve as they should. Also the nowadays batteries are a little thicker than the older ones. I can offer the conversion for the Battery Trucks from 3 x AA-batteries to 3 x AAA-batteries. You send me your battery truck and I will insert an AAA battery holder - using remade cables and plugs. If you need plugs as well - you will be asked for that in mail-order-form. This conversion including my expenses for shipping cost. At least EU compatible batteries - especially low-cost batteries - serve the tender - rechargeables still do not fit.

the 15XX tenders. Each Set consists of 2 yellow/red/blue or violet cables with crimped-on
plugs and red isolation hose. These Sets are already configered to be
used in the 4-axle coaches. If you want to use them in the twin-axle
tenders you have to shorten the cables on your own - but that should be
no problem. Red, dark blue and violet cables are available as well -
please state that when ordering!!! Cables for the 1504 E Shell battery
tender have to be ordered separately!!! In this case crimping and riveting has to be done inside the lid
by your own.

and needs a
fixation by means of a drop of glue! The 1st wheel handle costs
6.- € - each further wheel costs 3.- € - (all incl. shipping).

I can offer lasered remade crane hooks for the 095 Dock Yard Crane,

approx. 1 mm longer than the original - but has no visual nor other

I have a
"lot of" remade window-glasses for the 520 and 521 coaches "laying

pair costs 2 (two) Euro extra. This price includes shipping. Signals very often the base / socket,
which is pushed onto the prolonged sleepers, for the 022 signal is
missing. Here you will see how the create a re-make. In principle the
base / socket of the switchers, "home" of the lever" is identical - just
2 small nuts are missing for fixing the 2 "noses" of the signal's base.
These may be made using a 1 mm drill.
Crew re-makes

cargo
Most of the wooden cargo is missing when acquiring Biller coaches
nowadays. But these may easily be replaced using cheap wooden sticks as
available in Hobby Shops or similar.
For the 505 Timber wagon you may use 8 mm sticks - length 140 mm - 7
pieces adhered to a single wooden bunch. For the 510 Log lorry you may use 14 mm sticks - length 110 mm - 6
single sticks for each coach. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
