First design so please be gentle.

Guide for sliding doors designed to be attached to baseboard with screws. The first model has an overhang designed to accommodate the way my particular baseboard/door jam fit together. Also includes a L/H overhang for the other side of the door jam, and a generic no-overhang file.

The Generic and L/H versions currently have slightly beefier outer side walls (just an extra mm). The +10mm files push the door further from the baseboard to account for a door jam that extends further from the wall than the baseboard. (The 10mm isn't entirely accurate... it's close, but it's based on the pirate's code so it's more of a guideline than a measurable number...).

Number 4 countersunk wood screws fit well, but I've also covered them over with some UHMW Glide tape to minimize friction with the door surface.

Printed @ 205/55 on creality glass bed.

Most baseboards aren't 90deg but the angle can vary from one to another so I didn't bother trying to incorporate an angle into the design. The surface that mates with the wall is fairly short so it shouldn't take too much to shim it up. I used clear "gel" tape at the top which was more than enough to force the bottom flush to the floor/carpet.
