See if they are cheaper the more you buy as we could perhaps get some folks
to pitch in a get a big order.  Despite having no immediate need for the
rails, I will use rails in my pit and will need to get them someday.  I
don't have a problem getting a set now to use later if someone's going to go
to the trouble to order some, I'd be glad to pitch in my share if it makes
ordering these guys easier.

Thanks to all for the Dzus info.  Looking on the Net, it seems like lots of 
places advertise the fasteners of various types, but not too many advertise
the 
rails.  Evidently a lot of what's online caters to the race car crowd.  

I'll see what kind of quote I can get from www.edmo.com and let ya'll know.
