Neat idea. Beefier pillow block, though. Maybe if you used 2 for better support....

That will work.
Also look at the drylin stuff frm Igus, MSC carries it. You can make your own aluminum pillow block for these things, and buy them as inserts.

Costs about 2-6 dollars depending on size. Drill rod will work for these, I think McMaster Carr also sells hardened aluminum rod too that will work.
