I don't know how that happened. I set it up to point to the correct URL.

If anyone would help it is the B&Q Traditional White Style Double Wardrobe (EAN:0000003440445). I won't post a url again in case it goes wrong.

Don't click on the url. It has been hijacked.

The question is genuine.

inch melamine would be the most popular choice. Some care is needed to avoid chipping it during cutting.

Re fixings, you've got a few choices:

  • little tiny plastic press in things in 6m holes - cheap, weak, can fall out
  • 1"x1" woodstrip glued or screwed round 3 sides under the shelf - strongest option
  • 1"x1" metal brackets, available in packs of 10 from any DIY outlet.
  • Or for every conceivable option,

Without wanting to be too contentious - was the above really spam? Afterall it was at least posted to a thread about wardrobes. I thought that it wasn't frowned upon to mention commercial interests if they were relevenat to the discussion in progress (rather like the Hep people used to)

Not having a go at anyone, just wondering really.

Cheers

If they contibuted elsewhere as well then it wouldn't perhaps be spam. Posting only to advertise your company is spam.
