    Lengthening the K40 X-Axis linear guide rail

    One problem with the K40 is the limited work area - 200x300mm. My plan is to use as many of the existing components as possible to keep costs down. So, with that in mind I'm wondering...

    Does anyone know where to purchase the material that's used for x-axis linear guide rail attached pictured?

    ... or what it's called, or where to purchase? Obviously it's some sort of aluminum extrusion, but I've not been able to find it.
