I am getting quite excited by these developments. They certainly get the old grey cells thinking.
Would it be possible to produce a laser cutting file (I assume that would be .DXF) for a trackbed layer complete with sockets?
This could be laser cut in cork or 2mm greyboard.
Then lasercut the sleepers in 1.5mm ply or 1.6mm basswood, complete with sockets.
Produce resin 3D printed chairs with longer plugs, or some temporary alignment plugs(ABS say).
Stick down your trackbed.
Stick the sleepers onto trackbed using the temporary alignment pegs (or the the chairs with longer pegs)
Remove temporary plugs
Thread rail onto chairs, then plug the chairs into the sockets.
