    Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.

    So I'm guessing the original knobs were 'Bakelite"? Whatever they were, so glad to see you replicate them instead of changing them all to new knobs. Brilliant job, as always. You're the best!

    • @ATRestoration
      @ATRestoration  2 роки тому +44

      Yes, the bakelite official name was polyoxybenzylmethylenglycolanhydride :) It was first time for me making those, so very interesting for me too. The originals are pretty fragile and there are no replicas on sale.
