PN will ship a new kit when it arrives. it took a couple weeks to get what i have so it may be a couple weeks more

i was just about to pull the trigger on 2x2x72 aluminum u channel. my idea is to make a channel bridge with bent rod legs. i've got half a dozen sketches like that one with various designs for attaching through a rail, folding under the track, resting inside rail pins, etc. thinking strong, very small footprint and very small sightline/profile. i wanted to use pvc u channel but aluminum is actually half the cost, go figure. the 2x2 u channel will aid in keeping the pickup sensors accurate. i've not found 1/8"-1/4" rod or have tools to bend it though.
