The monorail tracks are also solid now, which is not something you can do in injection molding but leaves
a really nice surface finish at the bottom of the rail for us.
For now, I also use non-baseplate aligned joints for curves. While this means you can't just snap the rails
on a baseplate, it enables you to use straight rails at non-90 degree angles which I think is an absolute
win over the original design since the 45 degree curves are useless outside of joining them with switches.
_These are 3d printing optimized, compatible rails, not replicas. Replicas print horribly due to support._
### Optional Differences
#### Operating on r25 instead of r28
What difference do these three studs make?
With this radius we can take advantage of the pythagorean triples `3/4/5` and `7/24/25` to stay on the stud
grid with turntables.
- Curve C15
- Curve C7
- Straight S21
- Straight S7
- Straight S6
Two C15 and one C7 make exactly a 90 degree turn, where every part stays on the stud grid.
An s-curve with C7 moves two studs, and can be extended by 1 stud
with S7 or 3 studs with S21.
An s-curve with C15 moves over 20 studs, and can be extended by 8 studs
with S6 or 28 studs with S21 straights.
## Printing
To be compatible with standard bricks, the following print settings are strongly advised
