    Default Konova Slider Update (Original To New K3B2 Version) = Best $60 Ever Spent!

    For those who own the original Konova slider and have been happy with it but too cheap/lazy to update to the new legs/trolley stage... I gotta tell ya this was probably the best $60 I've ever spent! (So Just Do It Already!)

    Konova K3 Slider UPDATE KIT

    Cost includes shipping from South Korea and to my complete surprise it showed up FED-EX only 4 days later! No Customs Fees (was declared as a gift)

    This update not only shed pounds off the slider's weight, it allows the slider to get low on uneven surfaces, and also attach to the NEW HAND CRANK and MOTORIZED KIT.

    Finally, they tossed in an adhesive metal ruler for the top rail of my length of slider upon my request (which the new one now comes with)

    Oh yeah... did I mention it looks like a Ferrari now!

    Ha! I was going to say!
    I only read the $60 first, and thought this is too cheap to be true, especially with free FedEx.

    Glad you posted this again, just so not to confuse anyone else...

    Two reasons, either you nicked the rail (and you're screwed) or you are not using the oil sil wipes before each slide.

    The smallest amount of dust, dirt, sand, etc, will stick to the rail and cause bumpy slides. To correct this, take the end cap off one side of the slider, remove the trolley, take it apart and clean the bearings by spinning them while held against a soft cloth, then thoroughly wipe down the rails with the same soft cloth. Then oil up the rail wipes (3 in 1 or sewing machine oil works rather well) and give each direction a quick pass with the oil slide before every slide. Carry the soft cloth in the slider bag to wipe off dust, dirt, sand and other debris, and please try to keep the darn thing out of the elements if at all possible.
