Presently, I'm running a floor layout with 027 tubular track. My transformer is connected with a CTC lockon. I probably have a dozen of these. My problem is that my feeders (tinned #14 stranded) like to walk out. I'd like a lockon with studs so I can use ring terminals or spade terminals. I know the newer Lionel lighted lockons come with binding posts, but call me cheap, I don't feel like paying $8 for it.
I was thinking about rivet-on binding posts, like they sell for the ZWs & KWs. Do you think the tapped-over rivet would be be flat enough for the underside of the lockon? Otherwise, I'm toying with just using machine screws and nuts.
Thanks,
Chris
