Hi Everyone,

We are going to order a stock of 20mm 80/20 t-slot before build season and we have a couple of questions: Have you ever used this material before, and what was your experience? We have, with good rseults. Where is the best place to buy 20mm t-slot extrusion? Where is the best place to buy the accompanying connectors and fasteners? Would it be acceptable to use #10-32 as the standard bolt on the robot even though the t-nuts will have a metric M5 thread (10-32 and M5 are very similar)?

Thanks for all you knowledge,

- Alex
