While replacing part of the kitchen counter I noticed the draw beneath the
counter was stuck shut. No amount of pulling on the handle moves it one
bit. We don't use this small, eating utensil sized draw, thus it being stuck
has no real consequence. Now, it is a matter of principle or ego to get it
open (without resorting to saws and crowbars).

I am able to reach up under the sink and put my hand into the top rear of
the draw. Using a coat hanger to feel around, there doesn't seem to be
anything holding it in from the inside. Any ideas on what I should be
looking for, or how to attack this problem.



er....

Did someone refinish the cabinets with something like varnish which
could have "glued" the drawer front to the surrounding surface?

If you can't even wiggle the front sideways a tiny bit, that's my bet.
