Abstract: Integral studs, such as T-studs, are cut from metal sheets on which the studs are to be deployed. A process for providing integral studs includes cutting the studs from the sheet metal on which the studs are to be deployed, and elevating the studs above the plane defined by the sheet metal. The process obviates the need for welding or otherwise attaching non-integral studs to the sheet metal.

Abstract: A two piece table leaf slide support consisting of a U-shaped metal channel member and a metal support bracket slidably supporting the channel member, the elongated U-shaped channel member having a vertical base wall, and a top flange and a bottom flange extending longitudinally orthogonally of the base wall, one end of the channel being curved with the top and bottom flanges remaining substantially in their respective planes, and a pair of lengthwise spaced apart lancings through the channel member vertical base wall effective to prevent the channel member from jamming or shifting endwise out of the support bracket.
