Personally think that too much drawers and shelving already and railing most probably not enough.... some suggestions

MBR: can consider remove the 3 drawers in the centre part and have more drawers below the TV console? Why need so many shelvings near console? you intend to put games console other than TV/DVD player?

Common: reduce the length of the 3 long drawers to same length as the shelves on top. Then you can another railing in middle. I think you should have enough drawers 5 x short drawers to put your stuffs.

But note any storage extra is good as you never know when you need it... :D

thanxs man... i asked my ID changed liao... hopefully will get it right this time round.... this wardrobe changed so many times i oso paiseh....

anyone knows normally how long the carpentry will take after the measurement?

For my case, after on-site measurement and confirmation, the carpentry was delivered to house for assembly in abt 1 wk plus (11 days from confirmation, inclusive of wkend).

A lot of projects are rushing at the moment, so I think there will be some delay I believe.

seems like bad things come in pairs......

as if we do not have enough problem with the renovation, we are faced with another nightmare....

on Saturday morning, we received a call from our contractor saying that someone has splashed paint on our main door!!!! we rushed down saw something that we never thought would happen to us ...... yellow paint splashed across our front door with writings scribbled in blue "O$P$ #21-XXX"

we called the police who arrived 15 mins later to take statement, pictures ..... and that they will also be taking statement from the 21 floor occupants of the said 21st floor unit....there was little comfort knowing that the case would be handled over to the CID for further investigation..... the harm has already been done

curious, we went up and saw that the #21 unit actually has a CCTV installed above their door!!! we went to the 22nd floor and saw signs of paint be splashed on the main door also..... but clearly, it was done some time ago as the town council has already repainted the surrounding walls

clearly this is not the first time it happened.... and we were puzzled why it is still happening.... town council has installed CCTVs in our block a few months back.... at the ground floor lift lobby, in all lifts and 1 facing the stairs ....

- are the CCTVs recording the images? or just like the ones in the MRT station a year ago installed just for "monitoring purposes"?

- with the CCTV and prior cases of harassment, what has the police and town council done to prevent similar cases from happening?

sigh........

May i know which block in AMK?.....3xx ?, 5xx or 7xx ?...these are the high-level blocks which I hv viewed some of the units there b4 i got my EM at bishan....

Hope everythings will be fine with you.
