OK, my corrugation tool may look daunting at
first, but I whipped it together out of junk from the garage in
20 minutes.
The work is done by the screws, in N-Scale that's
8-32 size. For a simple and quick tool just get the longest 8-32
screws you can find, 3" is good, 1 1/2" will work, and
a small chunk of plywood. (Plywood won't split on you when you
screw the screws in like other wood will)
Use a nail to dent-mark (center punch) 2 holes in
the plywood, spaced 3/16" apart. Use a 1/8" drill and
carefully drill the 2 holes, being careful not to let the bit
wander. They will be very close and may even open up the gap
between the 2 holes.
Next, just screw one screw all the way to the
bottom of the plywood piece (the hole may be a little tight, but
a little force, and a stubby screwdriver helps), turn the plywood
over and screw the other screw in from the bottom, all the way
in.
Now you can see why longer screws are better,
because you have to put the foil between the screws, and at the
top of the long screw tool, they separate easily.
