Connect this to that with a set-screw coupler. These couplers are made of machined aluminum and have a spiral cut that makes them slightly flexible so they can be fit to two shafts even if they are not perfectly co-linear and will help reduce binding effects. The way they're cut, they're a little springy in the X Y & Z linear axis but not in the rotational axis. That means that you won't get increased backlash - so they're suitable for precision...

This slider has a plastic interior with circulating ball bearings to make it slide smoothly along the...

This is an interesting hardware piece addition for 20x20 aluminum extrusion. Rather than being a 90 degree type plate, its a hinged piece that connects the end of one extrusion to the side of another, but with any angle you wish. You can loosen/tighten the angle with the screw on the side. Given its just a bolt, it's not incredibly strong so while you can use it for structure, its not a load-bearing connector: make sure there isn't a lot of...
