<p>[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 546605, member: 5066"]Yeah, one of the problems here is, the drawers are "graduated", that is, the bottom drawer the largest & the top drawer the smallest. Your chest is missing the 2nd largest drawer at the bottom, close to the ground so kinda awkward as a bookshelf. Another problem in restoration is, the inlay, that is not a DIY type project & requires a professional woodworker or it's gonna look weird.</p><p>I would look around for a retired woodworker who piddles around in a home type shop for something to do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
