Vortex is nearly the only option. I'd try Hardracing.com

+1 to Vortex.... good stuff! If you go down you can replace just the puck, instead of having to replace the whole slider. And there's a bunch of different color and size pucks you can get to mix things up a little

+1 on the tutorials here, and I agree on the Vortexs and the cut ones only. The no-cuts are crap.
