I particularly like the legs. You also seem to have done an excellent job keeping the lids flat throughout the process by the look of them. And a safety hinge to boot, eh? BTW, the voice of experience here ... they won't keep their rooms clean or put toys back in the box until sometime after college.

Very nice, maybe too nice. A wise and good friend of mine once told me that
you give up your right to expect to own nice things when you have children. I found that to be basically true. Good luck with those heirlooms. wrote in message ...

The lid support I bought from Rockler, they are a little on the pricey side IMHO. They are a pain to install I think, even when you follow the directions. I found that it is easier to attach the lower end and temporarily attach the other end to the lid with carpet tape (release the tension in the hardware first). This ensures that it will close properly before you make a bunch of holes. Glad to see you are still on the wREC! |
