Ours is floating, check our website below.

Floating is great for cases where you can't leave it in, but personally I would rather a fixed slider. They are more stable, easier to build (generally they don't need to be A-frames) and quite often cost less.

Nothing wrong with floating, but fixed is preferable, IMO.

i prefer stationary sliders but if you can build some like OWC has, go for it Twisted Evil
