Folks,

I want to "surface mount" a couple of Digitrax UP-5's.  They are designed for flush mounting, by cutting a hole in your fascia and using the 4 corner screw holes to affix it.

But in my case, I don't want to cut a hole in my fascia, which is 1/8 thick flush mounted against my longitudinal benchwork joists (1x4 pine).  So I want to somehow find a box or something that I could mount the UP-5 to (I'd have to use a piece of styrene or something as a cover plate, probably), and then surface mount the box to the fascia.

MHR forum is a great source for electronics help and advice and for DCC

Some of us are really great teacher to help and to share some easy circuits which are extremely helpful, easy to build and affordable by the most of us.

I assume not all of us are electronic technician, so the way it works need to be simple and affordable for the most of us.

With the help of these great teacher, big step in electronic where shared on the MHR forums, like easy to build detector, Arduino application, servo use.

Hi – New here but have been an "unregistered" reader for a while.  I tried to find a search function before posting but I didn’t see one specifically for the forums.

Want to know people’s experience and or recommendations with mobile decoders for locomotives.  (I’ve always had someone take care of my electronics since its never really been my thing. I’ve decided to take this on myself when they told me they won’t work with LEDs.)
