I'm currently building a mobile base which will have sysport-type drawers, and I have a couple of questions.
Firstly on the slides - I've pretty much decided on the type of slides I'm going to use, but not where from. I found info on the Accuride 3832 Range. These slides are around £13-14/pair here in the UK. I've also found these cheaper ones for around half the price. They're obviously cheap rip-offs of the Accurides.
I'm a great believer that 'you get what you pay for', but for a sysport drawer that's likely to hold at most 10kg (they're both rated 45kg) would you really notice the difference in quality?
Secondly, I'm planning on constructing the pull-outs from 12mm MDF, with 24x8mm softwood edging all round. The internal dimensions are 396x297mm, into which the classic systainers will fit quite snuggly:
[attachthumb=1]
My question is, will the T-Loc systainers fit in this too? I don't want to build these & then find out in a few months that the newer systainers won't fit because they're a mm bigger...
