4-way Linear Slide

[chancey]

I was hoping someone could help me. I've been looking high and low for a 4-way (side to side, front to back), manual, linear slide that I can use for fixturing a part to tap 4 holes. I've seen these before, It's looks like one unit stacked on another allowing this motion. Anyone have any idea where I might find something like this?

Thank you

Do you mean an X-Y table?

That sounds right as long as it easily slides from one side to the other in both the x & y. I've seen some of these set up with micrometer adjustment - I don't need that. So, yes an x-y table sounds right. Lack of terminology. Sorry. That description seemed to give me a lot of hits. Let me digest them and see. Thank you.
