    Linear rails and guides

    Hello. I would like to find a place I can buy good quality rails and guides above the 1 meter length for x axis, and guides / rails that will support a decent sized load for Y and Z axis.. I've found a lot of manufacturers websites that don't have shopping baskets, you have to request a quote and they are looking for large scale orders.... So if anyone can point me in the right direction for places selling to small time guys like me, please help!
