Ya, i told the id too but he said its ok, will hold. Thus far he has been delivering his words, so i gave him the benefit of doubt.Anyway its my TV console side, same as urs so hopefully less movement around tat area and wont affect the bricks.

Nexer 1 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) Haha...BLUM kitchen is too expensive, so in the end i only bought the servo drive system for 4 bottom big drawers and aventos HF top cabinet servodrive. The runners and drawers are fabricated by my carpenter.All in all, i spent almost $1.7k just on the system.Its a luxury buy, but i dont want my wife to aggrevate her back problem when trying to reach for the bottom heavy drawers. So with servo drive, she can use her legs...haha!Of cos, its also a highlight of my place! Edited January 3, 2013 by Nexer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My hubby said I spent so much $$ on the kitchen, make sure I cook, bake, microwave very very often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am opting for Hettich soft closing tracks instead of Blum as I save almost $18 per set and I will be getting almost 30 sets for my entire household.
