I just finished mine, have to figure out a mounting system for them (from scratch...the price tags of the pro stuff hurts me and steals food from my teenage boy's mouth ;) ). cost for the rails ended up about $15 with aluminimuminum rods and associated hardware to turn them into a rectangle. I used wooden blocks on the ends to space them 60mm on center and used a Die to thread the rods (PITA) so I could throw washers and nuts to sandwich the pieces of wood at the ends. Looks very professional once I paint it mate black. Still have to figure out how I'm going to mount everything to it though. Give some time...I'll come up with something brilliant ;) (aren't we glad I'm modest).

Where did you find those - I know there's EU/US difference here, but as simple as that looks I can't find them in any parts/home improvement short - and those are really the most essential part of the whole rod system.
