HO help for N Scale!!

I had a friend of mine come over tonight to ask if I could help him install some couplers on a Con-Cor GN E-8 A&B. I pulled out my magnifying glass, cut the Micro-Trains Couplers off the sprues, and tried....and tried.....and TRIED!!!! To install the @&()%#!@!()*^^$#%^&*&%!!!! things!

Now I honestly respect all the time and money my fellow N-Scale brothers have invested in their side of the hobby, but I'm starting to think you guys are Masochists! So, as i was sharing the joys of HO with my friend, I had one of those brilliant sparks of invention!! I thought I would take a couple pics and share!

The advantages are you can SEE the #@@$^&%## thing, and it works better, too! Just don't look at it too hard, and it'll be okay!

Scroll on down....
