    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 ruclips.net/user/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 года назад +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.

    Vanity Dresser? Looks more like an old fashioned display cabinet. Kind of like you'd see in a department store back in the 30s or 40s. Probably have hats or purses displayed in it. Whatever it is, it's beautiful and I loved watching you restore it.
