    Thanks for that tip re the Step files. I went back in and re-downloaded all the files as 'Step' and my problems went away.

    The only problem with the rails is that you need to specify a length before the website will create the 3D file for you.
    Just get a few different lengths and lay them on top of each other, aligning with each bolt hole to keep the spacing. It's always better to work accurately and mate the bearings to the surfaces of the actualy rail they would run on, this way you don't get accumulative errors building up as the model grows.
