3D Printed Turnouts

[KB02]

Not my video, but pretty neat. Not sure if the maker is a member of this forum or not, but if they are: Well done!

*(Mods: Feel free to move this to the video section. Just thought it might get a bit more traffic here.)

KB: Pretty cool video. I do wonder about the time aspect of it. How long to print vs laying PCB ties in certain places and going from there? Single turnout no biggie, what about cross-overs or other complex arrangements. I do like the 'slide the rail' into the thing and gluing, whereas the PCB ties would require a different type of glue ... solder. Should never be any gauging problems with solder once set and the rail would be tough to move bumping it. Not a turnout, but yes I have trashed a piece of flex track knocking out the rail when working on a nearby item. Sure, fixable - just gives me the excuse to call my self dumb sh.t I guess.
