So now we have new furniture for our dining room which includes a tall, glass filled cabinet. Being from earthquake country means that we're certainly more sensitive to anchoring down tall, heavy furniture even if we're not in earthquake country anymore. The guys delivering the buffet and china cabinet weren't even going to connect the china cabinet to the buffer and were surprised when Carolyn asked for this "extra from them.
But they still left to us the bolting down of the entire unit. Rather than using an L bracket, I took a T strap and bent it so that we could have two screws in the wall and two in the bracket.
I was surprised to see how much more difficult it was to work on projects requiring a ladder than it used to me. However, having the right power tools did make thing much smoother than they might have been.
It's all about the tools, man. Gotta have the right ones.
