I work for a millwork company. My department makes custom doors. I built a new 4'x8' ft table today for my department, minus the 4ft wide drawer I want under the tabletop. I am 100% going to utilize this design, using 1x4 mahogany scrap that we've accumulated the past 2 years. You sir are a life saver!

John, you are one of the smartest guys I know. Your ability to figure out mechanical movements and translate those to wood is simply amazing.

Jesus God....I have not seen you for years...a million subscribers.! Good for you.

As an old hand, I have to say your videos are top notch, enough so that I'd make them an important part of any novice's education. Thank you.

Wow, dude! You are so awesome! Your handmade wooden tools in the background are super cool. Wish I had the knowledge and expertise you have!

John thank you for this amazing video and contributions to woodworking. Currently I am building a cart to go under the right of my table saw. The cart is going to end up with 5 drawers. I am looking at $105 for the 100lb full extension slides. My next build will be similar to your Large Toolbox build. In fact, I am toying with abandoning my current plan and just build two of your Large Toolbox builds. With a small shop, you want everything to be mobile. When I first started out, I caught some of your videos. At the time, they were way over my head. Now that I am on my third reorganization of my shop 6 years in, I really get your builds. Especially your drawer slides. Those drawer slides will save me great deal of money, and will go a long way in helping my understanding of mounting drawers.

I really like these. I'm one of those people with more time than money, so this works for me.

Very beautiful and unique, you have great carpentry skills.

You never cease to amaze me, John - incredible. There is nothing that you can't be made out of wood. Great video.

John, thank you for showing all of us how to make what we want/need instead of having to buy it. I enjoy seeing all the items you have made being put to use on additional projects and how sturdy they are.

The Mad Genius John Heisz is at it again. Amazing idea!

John - Great video,very informative, helpful, detailed etc. Thanks for sharing and including the plans. Honestly - I was wish I had a .10 of your abilities, creativity, thoughts, drive etc. Some of your work is truly mind blowing - even with something like this. Nothing major. Nothing huge, Nothing so complex that an engineer needed to work on. Simple enough for just about anyone to take on, BUT it took someone like yourself with your thoughts and abilities to make it happen. Thank you!

Thanks for being so inventive and sharing this. I've seen other takes on wooden full extension drawer slides, but none so simple and effective as these. As with all things that end up reduced to relative simplicity, I'll bet this took some thinking about!

John, I consider you to have the best mechanical minded person on you tube. My passion is lathe work, I have made most of the jigs that I use in my hobby. I definitely will be using this application to put new drawers under my new work bench that i built.

Don’t miss any of your videos. Love that you like making everything by hand, shows your always wanting to learn and experiment. Great video, keep them coming!!!!

john, you have to be the craftiest person i know!

Great product John, the "cheap" me has wondered about wooden slides like this, thanks for doing the leg work and designing, this is why i like you and Mathias, wood first! Cheers and thanks!

Brilliant! Always love your builds. Super smart, elegant, and economical way to build a practical alternative to full extension drawer slides. Thanks!

Watched this video last year when it first posted, finally got around to making my own set this last week. They work amazing! Thank you for sharing your creativity and talent with the rest of us!

Your an inspiration John! This is super awesome stuff. I always wondered if something like this was able to be done and executed well enough to be functional and well.. you've done it. Thanks for being you!

Again, Mr. Heisz, design is simple and efective. There will be a set of drawers in my closet using these slides. Thank you.

I really impressed with this ingenious way of making slides. Great work John!

You Did It again John!!! Really a great Idea. I love the simplicity yet the engineering is spot on. Thanks for all you do. Rusty

There is a small handful of true master woodcraftsmen on KZfaq and John is one of these.

Finally used these drawer slides. Excellent! I had to try designing my own to appreciate how clever this design is. Looks simple and is simple and that is genius. Thank you, John!

Great project John. By far the simplest wood version of full extension slides I have seen. Thank you. It would be fun to see a quick video where you check the weight capacity of these.

That's impressive!! I'm in the process of building new cabinets for the shop and these are now going to be part of the build. Thanks for sharing your ingenuity!!

Thanks, John! You come up with one brilliant idea after another. And not just ideas. You make them work! And share them! Thanks!

I love this idea!! Drawer slides are really expensive here so I'll definitely give this a try. Thank you for all your wonderful content

Bravo, John. This is exactly why we come back.

Those are brilliant!

Thank you not only for the great idea, but for the kindness of record It to show us

Love this idea of full extension wood drawer guides …thanks for sharing

Very cool. I love the look of them. Thanks for sharing these.

Thank you again for all the great work

I’ve been having a hard time finding slides the right length. This is the perfect solution at the perfect time! Thank you for posting this!!

Will be trying these on my ibuildit miter saw station once I have that complete, thanks for what you do!

Simply, Amazing!!! this removes the excuse for not starting and sustaining a meaningful project!!!

Sweet! Thanks John!

Now this is a John Heisz video!

Thank you, John. Just tried this and I am amazed at how simple it is, and yet how great it works. It looks great, very subtle. Thank you for sharing.

This has to be the most valuable wood work share ... THANK YOU SO MUCH!! ♥️🌟

Thank you, this is a very clear and well-explained set of instructions.

Nice! Will definately make them as I get to cabinets in our cabin.

I've been trying to form an idea for these wooden full extension drawer slides lately and just happened to find your plans. Excellent! Thank you.

Hello John, YOU're my DIY-hero!

I mean... he put the plans on youtube. What a saint!

Oh my goodness... You are a genius! Thanks for the free plans... I WILL be doing this.

I really enjoy your new ideas, John. Thanks for making this great and unique content.

So smartly done. Love it.

These are amazingly cool, and look pretty achievable for those of us still learning. I can't wait to try!

That is fantastic, now you can build the cabinet to fit the location instead of the hardware. Thank you John. Now for your next build... Making these Soft-closing!

I will definitely be using this idea on some shop cabinets! It may not make absolute monetary sense, but I’d rather make than buy!

Awesome job! I will be using these in an upcoming project. Thanks for all the content.

Absolutely brilliant, I wish I had seen this video three months ago ,it would have saved me heaps ,thanks John

great job John, very impressed with what you have built here.

Excellent alternative to expensive metal slides. Encouraging for amateur woodworkers.

Building this, cutting the slots right now, this is why I got into woodworking during pandemic, this kind of diy stuff, and for sure your channel inspired me I could build tools and do it myself, I didn't need to buy very much, it's everything I'm about!

Great clear concise video!!!!!!!!!! Great tutorial!!!!!!!!!! Love your work and craftsmanship!!!!!!!!!!!!!

again a great idea! love it.. thanks John!

Simply awesome as always mate. Thanks.

Thanks again John. Such an awesome carpenter and woodworker.

Awesome video! I doubt I’d build these but I love seeing you come up with innovative solutions!!

I am impressed! Never thought of building these on my own. This will change the way of my thinking.

Most helpful! Just what I need for my small project I am embarking right now. Thank you, John!

John, nice job. I love it.

Brilliant! Good job, John.

I'm new to this channel and thank you for the metric measurements as well.

Really really good build! I have been cogitating on wooden drawer slides for a project for a little while. I can stop cogitating and go to work. Thank you for sharing this build!

Great video John! Many thanks for the inspiration.

Awesome! -- Thanks John

Brilliant, John!

John Sei un “Genio” veramente fantastico

Великолепно! Созидательный, творческий труд украшает человека👍

WOW! This was just as much enjoyment the second time as it was the first time!!!

Great detail the orange on the plans. Happy Thanksgiving John! And thank you for the plans, really appreciated.

I can’t wait to try these.

This is absolutely brilliant.

These are brilliant. Well done

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

Thanks, John great piece, and wonderful instruction. Could put this to use in any project.

Dude. I am endlessly impressed by your ingenuity and craftsmanship. Too awesome.

Awesome Job! Thank you!

Nice Build, definitely going to make some of these. thanks for sharing

Not sure why, but the sound quality is awesome. The voice over is very clear/clean.

The sound quality of your video is PHENOMENAL!

This is great knowledge John! I will certainly try it out!

I like the way those are made, looks like they work very smoothly; I think I'll make some for my next drawers.

Great video John. Thanks for sharing it. I would also like to give you recognition for your videography. You do a great job at that too! I dabble at both and can appreciate the effort taken here. Thank you again.

simply genius - and the emphasis is on the simple.

Very nice John. I have often said the most important tool in your shop is your imagination and your shows that to be true!!!

What a beautiful job man you keep giving us surprises everytime

Brilliant! I was looking for a locking slide for an application I was wanting to try, but couldn't find something that would work the way I want. This will allow me to make my own slide and add a lock at different locations.

John you must have been a Tool & Die maker as I was for over forty years when I saw you pull out your calipers and measure, this is the way I measure also. Took a woodworking class for over twenty years at local community college they all laughed at me for measuring this close. Great tips on slides love your gear movement on vise, I think I would need a dividing head and Bridgeport to make this one. Your teaching skills are excellent keep doing what you love !

Great idea (and a good way to use scraps instead of buying drawer slides for shop furniture!! One theoretical question: how much weight could a pair of these support? A test of that hat would be a cool video to watch (hint hint)!

Absolutely awesome.

Where has this channel been all my life!! I am excited 😁 about trying this! Thanks for sharing 👍. And now I'm 🙏 a subscriber.

Cool! Thank you!

This is the video I've been waiting for! I'm making my own dressers soon and wanted full extension drawers, but I didn't wanna use metal hardware.
