I do recall that it was a rather simple fix though. I removed the screw and latch from the back of each lock, and drilled a hole all the way through to accept the new bolt. <br />I keep a variety of hardware on hand, so I chose a flat, hex bolt from an old futon to act as the pull.

Actually, if I recall correctly, there was no cutting at all, the board had just enough overhang to look right.Manic Makerhttp://www.manicmaker.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2072225941777201287.post-87420890932983169222015-03-29T19:59:07.697-04:002015-03-29T19:59:07.697-04:00How many pieces of pine did you have to use for th...How many pieces of pine did you have to use for the top, and how did you attach them together?

I removed the metal top of the cabinet for easy access, then laid it upside down on the wood board. <br />Make sure your hardware is shorter than the thickness of the wood so it does not pierce through the top of the wood. I also recommend using washers with the screws because the sheet metal is rather thin.Manic Makerhttp://www.manicmaker.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2072225941777201287.post-75300637387888353582014-06-09T00:11:00.263-04:002014-06-09T00:11:00.263-04:00I love the way you transformed the piece and would...I love the way you transformed the piece and would love to have a go of this myself!
