Re:Castle after 15 ish years lol Date Posted:29/11/2013 12:14:54Copy HTML Oooh must be more than 12 months that I haven't been in here. That is absolutely amazing Sam so your not just a pretty face then ... how many stitches do you reckon is in that. I'd be very proud to say I made that, very well done you. Now why did I look in this section . Oh yeh I remember.... (it's my age !) These are better than your average chipboard units so quite heavy by the time they are all put together. Only one complaint and we had to go back to shop about it. You can chose your own design of handles out of a choice of about 6. We needed about 16 handles and they are not cheap. If I'd known that at the time I'd have sourced them elsewhere. OK you have to drill holes for these handles to screw them on which I did no problem. Went to put handles on .. half fitted and half had screws that were too long .. doh! Tried packing out with washers, nope still too long, back to shop, assistant ordered some more, turned up couple of days later, yeh fitted ok. Hmm I suppose you want to see them now ... darn ... don't go away, gotta find camera and take photos |
