That said, it&#8217;s probably a good place to start if only to grasp the basic concepts of hand-built point work.  This video should give a broad understanding of what&#8217;s involved and hopefully communicate that the process needn&#8217;t be too challenging.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"S2 E31 3d Printed Model Railway Plug Track from Templot\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uSwJlwbOcIY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">An introduction to the Plug Track concept<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"S2 E32 3d Printing Turnout Components with Templot Plug Track | Bexhill West model railway\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/38OBv7rYmtU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Further details about creating chair rafts etc.  There are simpler way of achieving the outcomes in this video.
