I've made a ton of progress on plastic track, notably with 3D printing. Here's a short video to demonstrate.
It looks pretty good, but isn’t 3D Printing track awfully expensive?

Not at all - I don't pay for power and the printer is free to access - mine's in my shop, but lots of libraries have printers open to the public. In material cost, $20 of material can make at least 20 turnouts. My personal printer is under $200 and is easily capable of these prints.

I've seen! I actually used your experiment to justify my incoming Lionchief Plus loco - I had assumed it wouldn't work under 12V.
And for what it's worth, you're the very first battery-powered Lionchief *Plus*
This thread has earlier regular Lionchief conversions. 
I've also noted my posting mistake - this is NOT my thread...duh.
