The Plug Track functions are experimental and still being developed. Some of the earlier pages of this topic are now out-of-date.
For an updated overview of this project see this topic. For some practical modelling aspects of using Plug Track see Building 3D Track.
The assumption is that you have your own machines on which to experiment, or helpful friends with machines. Please do not send Templot files to commercial laser cutting or 3D printing firms while this project is still experimental, because the results are unpredictable and possibly wasteful.
Some pages of this and other topics include contributions from members who are creating and posting their own CAD designs for 3D printing and laser-cutting. Do not confuse them with Templot's own exported CAD files. All files derived from Templot are © Martin Wynne. -

3D printers - fun with FDM printers (Klipper-based)
. This topic will be about using the latest high-speed FDM printers based on the Klipper G-code interpreter and driver, for printing timbering bases (and filing jigs). Initially about the Elegoo Neptune 4 series of printers. For discussions about Marlin-based FDM printers, see instead this...- Martin Wynne

Building 3D track
. This is a topic to talk about actually building track using 3D methods -- 3D-printing, laser-cutting, CNC-milling, etc. Using both the built-in Plug Track functions in Templot in whole or part (still extremely experimental), see: https://85a.uk/templot/club/index.php?forums/plug-track.34/...- Martin Wynne

Another FDM printer
. To my surprise I've ordered another 3D printer. A second FDM printer to join the BIBO. This one, for £88 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08V85TH34/ edit: updated link of cheaper machine (not tried by me): https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09MCPRNFS There are also cheaper...- Martin Wynne

Extracting a 3D timbering brick from a track plan
. edit June 2023: This topic is now 18-months-old. Many of the earlier posts are now out of date, but you will need to read all through it to make sense of the later posts. • Please be aware that Plug Track is still extremely experimental and in continuing development. There are various...- Martin Wynne

3D printers - messin' with resin
As my birthday is next month (not saying which one) and the price of resin 3D printers has dropped a lot I took the plunge into resin and ordered something called an Elegoo Mars 2 Mono. Should arrive Saturday. The build surface is a bit small but the resolution is pretty good so it will be...- AndyB
