I have finally put together a lr32 set from ebay and other second hand sources.  But, I cannot find the longitudinal stops for sale anywhere.  Does anyone sell them separate?
 
Will need a pair of knobs too, unless you have some already.
What are they 6 mm.
 
to install the stops on the rails, or am I thinking of something else.

Those are the old stops they have been superseded by the new ones (as linked by ben_r_) that can also be used to give the correct spacing when you join two holey rails.
 
So the new style stops are like the ones Eric is using in this video. These appear to
be the same as the ones in the link you refer to.

Looks to me like he is using a knob (or thumbscrew) to secure the stop to the rail.

Correct.
 
Just confirmed that they are M6.  Most Festool dealers will order these for you through EKAT.  I imagine they're only a couple of bucks per unit.  You could presumably also get the rough equivalent Amazon or McMaster Carr, though you would have to buy more than two:https://www.mcmaster.com/#knobs/=18pgzva

If my memory serves me correctly the newer style stops also allow for the spacing of one of the more common Euro knockdown fittings - although I don't remember what that spacing is.

Perhaps someone can confirm.  My guess is [member=10147]jobsworth[/member] or [member=11629]GarryMartin[/member] will confirm or deny.

There is a 9.5mm setting on the stops that will put a hole in the face of a panel to match the middle of an edge of a 19mm panel for a dowel or NDF.

If youare talking about the spacing when connecting 2 holy rails together and keeping the 32mm spacing between the holes, Yes the newer ones will have a = sign etched into them. So when you connect 2 holy rails it will keep the 32mm interval between holes. Just have to tighten the rail connectors and your good.

The old style stops also allow the 9.5mm setting, Peter. 
 
I'm not sure why I had such trouble finding the stops separate.

Thank you guys for the information!
