<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 121159, member: 37"]Looks like a standard telescoping slide for the top extension. The problem with it is that as soon as you separate the two halves very far, the slide supports will hit the inside of the skirt. I don't see how it could open up far enough to get a leaf in there. Unless I am missing something, I don't think this is the original top for this table. Typically, a top with slides like this would require that the entire table also pull apart. The cross stretcher at the bottom shows that this is not the case with this table.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
