My TV cabinet has a flat 25×25 surface. One each side of this surface is space for doors which slide straight out and hinges allow it to close in front. The custom cabinetry was built way back in the days of tube type TVs when a 27" TV was considered huge. The inside of the cabinet measures 30 inches wide.
Currently a 32 inch flat screen TV (28" wide) with it's stand sits on this surface. I purchased a 43" (39" wide) TV that is wider than inside the cabinet. What I want is to place the larger TV inside the cabinet at a 45 degree angle when not in use and pull it out past the front of the cabinet and rotate it for viewing. To do this, I want a sliding shelf, mounted on the existing surface.
I purchased a TV stand that allows the TV to swivel 45 deg. I want to secure the stand to a sliding shelf shelf (3/4 oak plywood) and mount it directly on top of that flat surface. The shelf needs to ride on hardware mounted to the flat surface and underneath the sliding shelf. It cannot mount on the sides of the shelf.
The shelf will allow the TV, pushed back diagonally in the cabinet, to pull forward about 10" or more in front of the cabinet, then rotate parallel to the front of the cabinet where it is wider than the cabinet and pushed back close to the cabinet.
I purchased undermount drawer slides but they mount at the front and back of a cabinet for a drawer. Picture your mother's wooden cutting board used to chop onions, etc sitting loose on a kitchen counter and slide it forward half way off the counter edge. The board would obviously fall off. I need some kind of hardware to allow it to be secure with a 40lb onion on it (about the TV weight)
