Denny -

I love it! You gotta be an engineer, like Oilspot and me! So now, the critical question - have you gone beyond the theory stage?

I'm inclined toward the three roller solution myself (a new one at the halfway point), since it avoids relocating the present set. Looks like a pain to install, though - it may require either removing or jacking up the slideout somehow, in order to cut the seal and screw down that third roller. If I have to remove the slideout, I will also consider mounting a length of angle iron along the front lip. Maybe even recessed into the plywood (?).

If/when I do it, and have some results, I'll report back.
