Hello Tom,

Thank You for the kind words.

Now, the ladder rungs.  After the molded rungs are removed I drill number #80 or #79 holes along each stile at the rung fastener location.  Next, I do touch up painting.   Once touch up paint was dry I added straight grab irons for the ladder rungs bent from Tichy Train Group (Tichy) #1101, .010” diameter phosphor bronze wire (PBW).  You could use brass wire such as Detail Associates instead.
