    So do you think I should make some Andy, stainless bracket with nylon slide? lol.

    i reckon so mate, It's a great idea and just waiting for someone to snag it and make it better...lol

    What you need to do is make the triangular shape with a clip function as pulling the triangle ends out of the plastic tube tends to bend it which will end up being a "fraction too much friction" one day...LMAO
