I considered an X-Y table but the ones I found were rather on the expensive

aluminum rails that looked promissing. I had intially consider a drawer
slider support with ball bearings. Certainly can carry the load, but
probably too sloppy in maintaining alignment.
Keep 'em coming
OK.
Cut a piece of teflon to fit inside a lenght of large aluminum U channel. Make the U channel several inches across the bottom, and several more up the side. A single slot in the bottom of the channel allows a couple bolts to pass through the teflon and hold the plenum down. It also allows the tension to be adjusted so that there's no slack.
Thought of that one right after I sent the last message.
