That was before I realised how much time that would take to make. Anyway, this is by way of introduction. 2_311418_400000001.png Creating that divides into several stages: 1. the easy bit. Create the basic alignments by overlaying normal templates: 2_311417_540000000.png 2. the straightforward bit.

Separate out each K-crossing and V-crossing as a partial template: 2_311417_540000001.png There are 2 diamond-crossings, so that means 4 half-diamond templates, each having 2 K-crossings and 1 V-crossing, so that makes a total of 12 partial templates: 2_311417_540000002.png 4. the creative bit. Extend them to link together, ensure all crossings are checked, and modify the check rail ...
