Here is a link to my pics of construction of resistance soldering station. Still need to do up a schematic.

I have just updated my blog with a better diagram of transformer and a pic of schematic as well.
Hope to have a project to use this easy to make bare bones resistance soldering station soon.

once you get it working you will wonder why i didn't build one sooner. with a set of tweezer type ends its the best thing for soldering track.

Jim it does indeed work but all I have done with it so far is solder 2 wires to a scrap of copper
Will be rounding up some sheet copper and brass to try my hand at an old MR project from April 1968
it is older than me It is a 89' flat with auto rack, the authors ho version done in sheet tinplate looks awesome. I will attempt to replicate the project in both S and O scales.
