The more I think about it the smooth tracks wouldn't climb hills as well. I like the looks of the high walker and it would give me a little more room to work under there...Henry, I'll shoot ya a pm and see what we can come up with.

Have you looked at the straight running conveyor belt chain, It could be cut down to just a little over 2" wide. ( McMaster Carr) Stainless or Acetate is available and the sprockets are available. Just an idea. Fred
