[SML] Bending Track (or strut)

[Dan Culhane]

Hi PJ,

Bending an open sided track will be very difficult to maintain the
center opening.  Automatic Devices Company (ADC) has some curved
sections of their 170 Track. H&H 100 and ADC 170 Tracks are virtually
identical in size to each other.

See if you can't make one of these work for your situation.
