Hi
I bought this chest of drawers hoping that they would be easily repaired,(got them for a knock down price due to the damage)
Was wondering if it has a designer and if anyone knows how much it would cost to repair this.
They're solid teak and
it looks like the handle has been snapped off half way along as the top of it is still attached to the drawer
the dimensions of these are 118cms tall by 79.5cms wide by 41.5 depth
Thanks in advance...
Take a drawer
with a handle, and the one which is missing its pull, to a cabinetmaker/woodworker. Ask if he or she can replicate the handle. It would be a matter of copying the profile using a table saw, and some shaping and sanding. Then the remains of the missing handle would be unscrewed or, if originally glued, planed off, and the replacement fastened on. It will cost more than you hope, probably, but not more than the piece is worth. Matching the material and color will be the tricky part. Too bad the missing piece wasn't saved; repairing is usually cheaper than making a new part.
