build your own rock sliders
Your worried about weight of sliders???? Steel ones aren't too terribly heavy and will hold up a lot better and be way cheaper. Plus the weight you do add is down pretty low.
My sliders weigh a metric ***-load. If you have access to Aluminum I would say go for it. But the aluminum is going to be way softer than steel and may not actually slide as well.
Find the attached IGES file I put together based on the information in this thread. I'm no industrial designer and was even less of one when I first made this, so forgive any mistakes!
At some point I'll probably start over with better cad technique and emphasis on ease of assembly.
Also if someone feels so inclined to return the favor - I'm looking for a CAM facility to cut out another file of mine: an engine swap adaptor plate.
