As I mentioned in the "What did you do today" thread, I now have 4M/13ft of 20mmx20mm rail to use for mini buttons. Obviously that is a tad long, and I noted that in that length, it bows.
The question becomes how long should I make my rails?
The way I see it, I have 2 real choices, both of which are good.
A. Make 3 equal sections 4ft 4in long. The Rail-Buttons web page advertises a 4ft piece of rail to go with their buttons....
B. Cut it in half giving me 2 sections about 6' 6". A little extra rail never hurts.
I guess there is a 3rd option, 2 pieces 4ft, and one 5ft....
Any experience out there with the mini buttons and 20 series rail? Has 4ft been long enough, or have you been in position to need more?
Thank you!
