Drawer slides

Where are people sourcing their drawer slides? Hone Depot or the like? I don't need anything heavy duty, 50lb capacity at 24" ish extended is plenty. Just building a pullout table for the Coleman.
Thanks in advance,
Nick

I was at Home depot yesterday and looked at drawer slides. I am pretty sure I remember seeing 24" slides! I think that was the biggest they had so I didnt pay much attention after that as I need 35" and would like to find locking slides.

If you have a Rockler or Woodcrafters store nearby, they usually have a decent selection up to the bigger sizes and have the advantage of often having functioning examples so you can see how they mount and work. You may have to get the largest sizes on-line, though.

Looks like I will have to take a look at HD though it doesn't sound hopeful. I checked out drawslides.com, seemed kinda pricey.. thanks for all the ideas guys, keep them coming and I will keep this updated as to what I end up with.

Try K/V knape/vogt comp. I used them in my horizon trailer and love em,bigger they are the price goes up. I got them from a place that sells things for kitchen draws,storage systems ect.

I will second Rockler....great selection and quality merchandise. I used some Knape & Vogt and could not be any happier with them. My only recommendation would be to purchase sliders with a slightly higher capacity than needed; the nature of off-roading places undesired stress on sliders typically designed for household drawers. Good Luck!
