Joe Klein Please let me commend you on your new addition of 'How to' to the Rockler Web Site' I was just looking for information on Tandem Drawer Slides and I found a 'WEALTH of information and Great Video in the How to section of your web site. And for your information, I do Plan to visit this pat of the web site very often in the future. However, I do feel that I need to bring this to your attention. Today I stumbled upon this portion of the web site.
And then went to the 'how to' tab and guess what, I saw a lot of reference to other material under certain categories as you have listed. So what I tried to do and 'COULD NOT GET THERE' was to get back to 'drawer Slide' section, but I could not get there or find it in the categories that you have listed. I would suggest that you either extend the categories or extent the search capabilities for finding the specific 'how to' subject matter we are looking for. So far very good and Please do keep up the good work.,. Clifton Parker Your item #28357 appears to be the proper type of replacement for a center track glide to repair the dresser drawer center glide but the glide I am replacing is 2' wide at the top and bottom, has a 1 3/16' measurement where your measurement is 1 1/8' and a measurement of 11/16' where your measurement is 5/16' since the 'mouth' of the glide is not rounded as the one you show but on a direct angle like the #24877 top slide piece.
The dresser drawer has the #24977 equivalent already in place and the plastic part of #29357 is more of a stop. There is not a Rockler retail outlet near me to take the drawer in to actually compare with the #28357.
Can you help or possibly direct me to another supplier? Helen R Hi - I am building under stair storage and the angle from the tall left side down to the bottom of the stairs is quite steep. I have three cabinets going in the space. I am wondering if there is a drawer slide that would be designed to be installed on the high point of the cabinet, but needed only one slider, and the drawer would not extend to the other side of the cabinet (due to the slant downwards). This drawer would hold dry spices and garbage/sandwich bags, etc. Light stuff so not a heavy load.
I would like to be able to mount a long, shallow wood tray I built to hold a 3+ ft long 4' expanding dust hose. The tray will be mounted horozontally on the side of my dust collection 'rig' (Delta single stage dust collector with Oneida Dust Deputy) such that the tray can be slid (extended) horozontally to facilitate a quick connection to the dust deputy before removing the hose from the tray for connection to a specific tool. Will a 75 lb capacity drawer slide (far exceeds the weight of the tray and hose) work for this, mounted only on one side? Mounted on one side is the key question. It will be mounted to the tray I built and a plywood or hardwood board fastened to the rig rails.
