Mathematical Derivation for Heavy Duty 250lb Cargo Side-Mount Drawer Box
How internal opening dimensions convert into saw cut dimensions with zero binding.
Deducts the factory runner clearance specified by Knape & Vogt / VEVOR to allow free gliding without binding.
Saw cut dimension for the front and rear cross-members between the two outer drawer sides.
Allows the concealed runner mechanism to tuck under the drawer box floor.
