<p>[QUOTE="Ralbrig, post: 9758026, member: 85994"]When i went to take additional photos of the sliding bars (rails) I found that I couldn't move them very far out of the cabinet, so I took a more careful look. It was possible to slightly tilt the rail and I saw that embedded in the stationary wood piece below the rail was a spring loaded pin. The rail normally slides over it keeping it depressed, but I think at some point in the rail's travel the pin acts as a limit (pops up). Since the travel length of the rails is currently too restricted, I assume that there is a piece (or pieces) missing that would have kept the pin depressed longer. Just looking at the rails, there must have been something attached to them in some manner. </p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, attached are additional photos.
