Thanks cpretty. I did attempt the sub assembly method. I consolidated the inner link, roller, and pin as one part requiring only 6 mates. Although I got sloppy with the mates, and applied them in a random order. When I applied a cam mate for the path the chain was malfunctioning or was...
I'm constructing two types of chains: A simple roller chain running across two sprockets. And a drag chain with attached connectors and flights. So it will need to be simulated, and not just a fixed part. The "Curve Driven Pattern" is not acceptable in my case.
