Product Description
A 3D-printed version of a handy modification, this adapter is designed to slot into any regular ELC-type N Gauge coupling.  The flat top can be used as an attachment for another coupling adapter or virtually anything (I have a version with horse and reins for horse-drawn vehicles), while a pre-cast hole enables thin wire to be fitted if required.  As the coupling block needs to be a snug fit, some gentle sanding may be required to suit, especially considering the potential thickness of coats of paint.  

IMPORTANT: while most models available here have been pre-tested and known to work, this adapter has not been printed/tested by myself, so while the measurements appear correct it is considered strictly experimental.  

(The model is offered in WSF and FED; the former is cheaper but with a coarse finish while the latter is more expensive but with crisper detail.)

Scratch-built examples of its use can be found at:

I hope this helps you to develop an unusual and eye-catching model.
