looking for multiple extenstion slides
#5
Anyone know where I can find the hardware for this table?  I am not sure if I will build one, but it is a great solution that can be built to look nice.

They  look like drawer slides.  I guess you could attach two drawer slides together end to end and get a lot of length. But these are very, very expensive.

Two sets of 36" slides will cost about $600.00.  These are 500 pound rated so maybe a lighter rating would work.

The hundred pound rated ones go to 28" and are much cheaper.  About $55.00 for two sets.

Thanks.

I found them, I think.  The picture shows 3 part slides for both the 38" and 64" openings.  This would mean the latter one would be longer to achieve the longer opening.  However reading the Q&A, it states both are 36" closed.  I will investigate this further.  I did not read the Q&A prior to posting

I found them, but they are not cheap.

5 sections.  36" closed, 64" opening.

Only $630.  I think these are still US made, but I am not sure.

However, now that I know what to search for, I am finding other sources also. I searched Amazon for "watertown slides" and found a couple of options there too. My guess is they are Chinese, based on the price difference.
