I was at the Home Depot today and I came across patio door rollers. I always keep and eye out for things that could be used or things that I could try, but I figured I would get your guys opinions first. What I was thinking was to take the rollers and using them on some 3/8 L beam steel. The L beam was the only steel there that was rounded over close to the patio bearings.
Things that are coming off the top of my head are they can handle a lot of weight, Hell when I removed patio doors here at the house I need help to carry the glass to the truck.
I see them sorta like v bearings just a u instead of a v. So what do you guys think just a waste of time or might be onto something. Any other ideals on what to use for the track?
Here is a picture with a few close measurements.
