I learned a trick from Chris Moseley when it comes to the need for
lots of tread links: You can put in an ordinary chain link (not the
wide tread variant) between every two tread links:
##=##=##=##=##=
That way, you can make treads that are 50% longer than before and they
still great on the model!
Of course, this only applies if you have some ordinary chain links to
start with. ;-)
