Gotcha. It's drawn as a Center Point Arc. The arcs were each 5 inches in radius (I think. I might be off a little.), and the entire roller is 2.75 wide. I'm still doing some math to see if really using an Arc is the right move. I might end up moving to a spline, who knows right now. I do know that we'll be pouring our own wheels into molds that we get 3d printed!
