Re: Slider design help?

thanks, Vivek.
When 330 uses a lift, they like to use aluminum C-channel with delrin rollers attached to blocks, secured inside the ends. The roller at the top of one segment is placed so that the block it attaches to is a hard stop for the roller at the bottom of the next one over.
