![]() I think I just had a brain fart.
If I want to move my hood 4 feet I only need 48 inch sliders for some reason I thought I needed 90 inches. Lee Vally has what I need J |

![]() Just FYI, yes sliding door hardware would be workable, other options are various linear bearings. www.8020.net has some neat aluminum extrusion linear bearings and components (but buy from their scratch&dent / used store on ebay).
I keep threatening to take a garage door opener and build a nice automated light mover out of it. Andy |

![]() This may be out of your geographical area, but I'm sure if you called Steeves Agencies at (204) 474-1239 or by emailing brian@steeves.ca , and asked for Brian and let him know I sent you he'd get you some real heavy duty rails - for you - and whatever else you were looking for. I've been in the warehouse and lots of ideas have come to mind when seeing what there was to offer!
I once considered putting a tank on these rails, but decided not to at last minute. Great selection of stainless steel hinges as well. Last edited by wetcoast; 01-06-2006 at 12:58 AM. |
