REQ: source for aluminum T-slot

I'm not always quick on the takeup, but I see two different possibilities here. If looking for something that might be described as being like part of a machine table, check Mitee-Bite.

I'm not sure what inexpensive is in this case, but this sort of thing is offered by several of the mfrs of aluminum framing systems. Item, 80-20, Bosch, MK, etc. This page has links to several of these companies.

Hello, Thanks, this is what I was looking for.

Hello, Thanks for the leads. I googled a few of these but many only had T-slot "posts" or "beams", no "tables". I'll check out some more.

I know Item has what they call a "Bed Plate Profile". The extrusions interlock to make a t-slotted bed of any width.

I'm not as familiar with the other mfr's lines, but expect Bosch, 80-20, and a few of the others will have something similar. The catalogs of these companies are quite extensive, so it may be worth a call to lay out your requirements -- I never would have found the Item profile in the online catalog if I didn't have the print catalog in front of me.
