Gaucho bed slides jackpot!!!

Hi all,
For those of you searching for triple bed slides, look no further!! These are SO INEXPENSIVE!!! I broke one and could not find anyone who sells the triple. The doubles on Vintage and other sites are outrageous, $70 each! I found triples and doubles at this site for $39 for a PAIR. Wow! And I found a coupon on retailmenot.com for free shipping ($9). These are listed as table slides. They also have steel, but the reviews looked bad.

I hope I have saved you some time and cash! Have a great day.

What exactly are you looking for, something to let a gaucho slide out? I would think that type of slide would need to be able to handle some weight. These table slides are designed to let a table open up in the middle and let you put one or two leaves in but they dont have any capability to support a weight unless they are supported underneath. If you are looking for a slide that will support some weight, take a look at the 200 lb full extension slides from Lee Valley. I've used a set of these in my workshop for moving a heavy radial arm saw out from the table and they function well. They are fairly inexpensive, even the 36" slides are around 50 bucks.

Now if I'm missing the point of why you want to use table slides on a gaucho, then please correct me.

I ordered slides from Osborne Wood Products and they are great. They are wood with a reinforced metal system. You want to order the equalizer slides, not the standard ones. With shipping to California it was only $75.00.
