    Default Anyone recognize these rails?

    A friend gave me a couple of these rails. I want to upgrade the fence on my table saw to make a single-axis CNC. But I can't figure out the brand. I want to buy a locking slide. The steel rails are 0.250" dia. The overall width is 1.675"

    I have attached three photos.

    I have done extensive searching online. Without any luck.

    Thanks for any help you can give.

    The profile pic in the center is missing the steel rails they are a bit shorter than the extrusion.

    Try again, no photos at all. Google links don't work.

    Try what? The attachment didn't work. I see the photos that I attached. They are at the bottom of the original post labeled Attached thumbnails.

    https://photos.app.goo.gl/arcykdtbsEVEHj698
    https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ax6QrDze88HSfQucA
    https://photos.app.goo.gl/DCvnJt3ofmpdHnUJ9

    What about links to google photos? Probably not if other google links didn't work.

    If attachments and urls don't work what should I do?
    I don't see an FAQ of this.

    OK, now the Google links are working.

    Sorry, I have never seen rails like that.

    You may not like this, but using Google as a photo host is a problem, and not just at CNCZone. Unlike some other photo hosts, Google wants to (this is my characterization of the process, not Google's) determine the permissions that the viewer may have to see the photos before Google will display them. From Google's perspective its a 'privacy' issue. From a user perspective, its a giant PITA. My solution: use a different photo host. If you'd like a recomendation, I use https://postimages.org/ and have been pleased how it works.

    Like it not like it. It is what it is. Thanks for your patience. I like postimages.org. Thanks for the link.







    I still don't understand why the attachments didn't work they were uploaded from my computer. Nothing to do with google.

    I have noticed some earlier occasional issues with attachments not being displayed/available. This forum is running on a 10 year old version of vBulletin. I understand that there is a forum software upgrade in the works. I don't have specifics, but am hopeful that a variety of issues will get resolved.
