Redbaran Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=1493 I was thinking about building my wife a slide-out tray for under the sink and was thinking about using one of those slides for it. But with the plumbing under the sink, it's likely that the weight will be heavy one one side and light on the other. I'm worried that the tray would lean to the heavy side and not work properly. Does anyone have any experience with these slides to know if I should order two so I don't have to worry about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sac Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 These kinds of slides generally have little nylon things that you mount on the face frame that take out that side to side wobble. I use these in my shop cabinets and I have quite a bit of weight in some of them and they seem to be holding up pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the manual online and it does talk about two plastic tacs for that very purpose. I think I"ll be fine with one slide then. Thanks for the response Sac!
