    Question 8020 linear motion products

    Hi All,

    I've been looking at the 80/20 product line (http://www.8020.net) and I see they have some linear motion products. They are slides that move along the 80/20 extrusions riding on self-lubricating plastic. I like the idea of once I've got my frame true and square, so will be my rails for linear motion. I was wondering if anyone has used these slides? The have shims for the slides so I'm guessing you should be able to get a good tight fit to the beams.
