    Just curious: how do you guys install your base station (arduino + motor shield) on your layout, and how do you connect main and programming tracks?
    Anything "fancy", or do you just leave it on 1 corner of the benchwork?

    Thanks

    On my Tram layout I put my Adruino, The H-Bridge and the sensor shield all in a project box with strategic holes for wiring and the USB to the Arduino board. This is then mounted with screws to the bottom of the module and the power supply is mounted in a similar fashion. I also added a PC style power port with switch for the power to the whole unit. If you want to see check out the "What's On Your Workbench" thread in the N Scale section to see what I have going on.
