That looks pretty slick. I had one in my B&H wishlist for a while, but
wasn't sure how well it would work. Nice to hear it works well for you.
I've since acquired an Oly Focusing Stage to use with the rail from the
Oly bellows. It gives a huge range of travel, if that's important.
There is also this from China, which has lateral movement as well.

It certainly looks like the Adorama <http://www.adorama.com/MCFRS.html>,
although whether it is from the same source or a copy, I don't know. I
know at least Chuck N. and I, and maybe a couple of others on the list,
have bought from this seller.
