My Kitchen drawer slides have fallen apart and the ball bearings have rolled out everywhere. I don't know what these types of slides are called and struggling to do a Google search to find a replacement, can you help? The drawers have a groove in a plastic pocket (pic enclosed from the back). The slides are not fixed to the drawer, but the drawer has a little button on the side to unlock and remove the drawer. The slides are side-mounted, but they have what seems to be an unusual plate that attaches to the cupboard. The left rail attached to the cupboard is significantly longer (full depth) than the right side one, which is only 2/3 of the length. See pix encl. Inside and in between the 2 metal slides are the metal ball bearings, which are on a little plastic train, but I guess it doesn't matter what material that's made of in the future. I don't know whether I can keep the rails in the cupboard and only replace the slides, or replace the full sliding mechanism. Obvs. because of how the drawer is constructed, I have constraints. Thank you for any pointers!

Now that the roof is on the piggery, and there's power in the building, its time to move my tools to their new home. I want ot make a set of sliding shelves, each holding a Bosch L-Boxx with its tool. Maximum weight - 25 kg The question is which sliding runner should I use for the shelves? The research I have done shows a wide range of price and complexity. I'm willing to bet you can tell me what to avoid.... And perhaps be willing to recommend one or two makes.
