Yes, like others have said, bearings are rubbish. I haven't used them. I might have if they weren't junk. I actually only used rods because I couldn't find them anywhere else at the time, 400mm long. Get real linear bearings and clamps and build around them. 2 stars because at least the poles were ok.
