I forget the name of the outfit I was looking at, they were based in
FL.

They would send you a plastic gage to get the correct size of your
track.

Try this one, it rings a bell:

Yeah, I've been looking at these... I believe Salty recommended it as well.
Perhaps next season. It's not that difficult that I'd spend the money on it

that's going to be a while.

What caught my eye was their business model.

Pick a problem in a specialty market, then provide a solution.

Somehow I think you would be happy with them.
