    Hardest part was the transition section. IIRC it was some variation of a Loft I used, but it took a good bit of tweaking to get something that looked reasonable. It still doesn't look 'right', but it's good enough for something that's purely decorative.

    I played for a bit and never got very far lol but I just realised it's probably quite simple with plane along a path and some loft/extrudes but got to go out now will have another play when I come back.

    Corners are just a basic arc, revolved. Rollers/humps are basically 3 arcs, trimmed, then extruded.
    You then need to use a type of loft between the two, however to get the smooth transition you have adjust how the inner high edge flows, so you start/finish level with a smooth arc, which I honestly can't remember how I managed it. I do seem to remember going through lots of options in solidworks to find something that would work.
