I didn't realise the sprocket were so different in width.

And I think you may have the tray in backwards. Isn't the tab that sticks out for the smoker ?

Hi Adrian

The width is surprising as the track is not that much smaller

I did think the tray should be the other way around - but it only fits one way with the current hole position and I'm not drilling any new holes in the floor to turn.

Cheers
