I think I going to attempt this style which a typical vertical model but utilizing a | paint can. I went out and purchased all of the materials which ran me less than $30.00. Jeffrey Lloyd 13, November 2011 13:33 (UTC)

I plan on using this material in-order to reduce friction wherever possible, it is called | UHMW. It is relatively expensive, $30.00 for a 1/2" sheet, but it would be nice to have for other projects.| Woodcraft,of Towson, sells it and I may run up there and pick up a sheet I will let you know.
