    Default Down sizing my Torchmate 2 5'x10'...into a 5'x2'?

    I currently have a 5x10 torchmate 2 with water table that I don't really need at the moment. I'm paying rent for it to sit in a warehouse and do the occasional hobby job...I know, I know...put it to work right? Not enough time in my day right now...

    I hope to be moving into a new house/shop within a few years and have room for it then but until then I'm thinking about turning it into a 5'x2' so I can at least have it in my home garage. I don't really want to cut up any of the frame so I was wondering if anyone knew the source for the aluminum rail and gearing rack along the side. I think I can make what I want happen with about 6' of each. I want to say the company that Torchmate sources the aluminum extrusion from is in North Carolina (Raleigh? I'm in NC too) but I can't remember the name. Surely the gear rack is somewhat standard I can find somewhere other than Torchmate directly $$...

    Thanks for any help.
