Dean is awesome. I emailed Dean a question on Friday and by Friday evening, Dean had responded to my question. I then had a few more questions to ask Dean about a drawer stop and Dean responded within a few hours. I did not expect this quick turnaround at all. With Dean's help (which included providing me with an image of the part I could purchase on Amazon), I was able to fix the drawer that kept falling out with a drawer stop. THANK YOU DEAN!! :)

My mom was ready to throw out a dresser because the drawers were not working properly, and my Pops just recently passed, so he isn't here to fix it. I remembered you mentioning different fixes in a few of your videos, so I hopped on here wondering if I would be able to find them and thought to myself how awesome it would be if you had made a video dedicated solely to drawer repairs. Imagine my utter surprise when BAM, I found this one!!! Thank you so much Dean -- you are constantly sharing your knowledge in an easygoing, comprehensible manner. You saved the day (and my Mom's furniture) during a time when my family could really use a win. Much love ❤️

@DeanFurnitureArtist 11 месяцев назад

Thanks! I am trying. Doing good. It got slow for a couple of months then insanely busy. Plus fighting the heat having to shut down work around noon and pick back up around 6 pm but it will drop to the 90s soon so should be back on track. Thanks Jay

You clever man. Thanks for the extra effort taking the drawer apart as a visual. I have learned a lot today.

Dude! 2 things, I’m just getting in to restoring furniture and I’ve learned a lot of this by trial and error but the drawer flipping thing just helped me fix a 70s Thomasville. I guess they’d been switched. And the 90° bit is a life saver. I acquired a writers desk about the same 70’s vintage that was totally missing a screw from the factory that secured the top to the frame. I guess they just forgot because there’s pocket for it but no entry holes or anything. But that allowed me to get in through the drawer opening all the way to the back of the desk and put one in it without disassembling the bottom. Huge help.

Oh dear. I went and looked at an antique dresser that I plan on redoing when it becomes fit for humanity again. All the pets come in by noon and don't go out except for potty breaks, until evening. This dresser my late MIL mixed every paint they have laying around and it is a thick dog poop brown. Anyway, if I can't figure out how to fix the drawers, I may have to email you. I just looked and it is the funkiest set up I have ever seen! My jaw dropped when I looked just now.

@DeanFurnitureArtist 11 месяцев назад

@vickiwilliams3382 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for your wonderful descriptions of how to fix the various problems with drawers. I have several older pieces of furniture that are in need of some repairs to the drawers and now I feel a little more confident in what to look for and what way to fix it. At least that's my hope as I am a bit new at furniture repair but I'm not trying to become a pro :)

@DeanFurnitureArtist 11 месяцев назад

So glad it was helpful. I will keep adding more "How To's" as I think of them.

Thank you so much for all of the info in such an understandable format. I inherited a house full of late Victorian to Mid Century Modern and a few cheap 80's particle board pieces. Most of them need some tlc especially drawers, so I've started researching and found you! Thanks again for such bingable content and hope the heat dome breaks and Houdini finds a home soon. Much love from Oklahoma!

@shericreates 11 месяцев назад

Thanks Dean. Now I know what to do with my wobble of a drawer in the kitchen. I am picking up the paint brush again after two years. Working on a dresser that has missing center slides. Probably an easy thing to do on the table saw. I have one. Scared to death of it. Bought it, took three years to put it together and it’s been sitting for two years 😬. It’s a beast! Contractor Rigid saw. But those drawer slides are calling. Thanks for sharing with us.

@DeanFurnitureArtist 11 месяцев назад

If you are in the U.S. send me a photo of what the slide looks like with measurements. I literally have like 80 here that I have hoarded out of dressers I made into hall tables. DeanFurnitureArtist@gmail.com

@hotwireman49 2 месяца назад

I have a desk that has those wooden runners inside the box but the drawers have the metal rail cheer it over the years I guess the metal chewed up the wood rail so the drawers just fall out. Do you have a video on how to replace those wooden rails?

@DeanFurnitureArtist 2 месяца назад

They should be the same. Just a screw in the front and rear unless they are glued down.

@Tyler-sq4lt 11 месяцев назад

I have a track system that looks identical to the track system of this piece with the wooden lower track and metal upper track. The wood tracks on the dresser are worn out, just like you showed in on of your other videos. I cannot find wooden replacement pieces that match what I have. I've found some that are close from Vintage Slides. But they're not as tall. Would I need to buy the replacement pieces and add some shims underneath to bring them up? Or do you have any other suggestions?

@DeanFurnitureArtist 11 месяцев назад

Yes, you can always shim them. How many do you need? If you can send me photos with measurements I may have some here in my stash. Another option I have done in the past is to flip them backward. Make the front the back. Always seems like the front wears first but the back is fine. Also, I am sure you probably already did this but just in case you haven't, Amazon has a ton of them in different sizes and you could even buy the wood-metal combo and replace the whole thing over finding a wood piece that matches your metal.

@Tyler-sq4lt 10 месяцев назад

@@DeanFurnitureArtist I emailed you. Thanks.

@DeanFurnitureArtist 10 месяцев назад

Whatch my lastest upload. The exact same drawer tracks you needed I also couldnt find.

@docmccarty 5 месяцев назад

What do you do if the wood guide breaks? Mine has a knot that eventually broke. Can I replace the guide only or do I have to replace the guide & the surrounding wood (mounted to the drawer)?

@DeanFurnitureArtist 5 месяцев назад

You can get just the wood track on Amazon. Sometimes listed under guide or slide.

@Aislynn775 8 месяцев назад

Dear Dean, i am a beginnier custom furniture painter. I found a matched set of Queen Nee repros. The BOTTOM slat of wood in one drawer is missing. I bought a metal rolling drawer track to intall. However, i must saw the adjuster down AND make it fit into the original cut out squared piece at the bottom back. I cannot find a video to address this.

@DeanFurnitureArtist 8 месяцев назад

I would have to see photos to understand what you are doing.

@marciaclose7209 Месяц назад

I have been replacing my kenlin trak 11 finally I discovered I had to use the guides with the metal backing. All pieces in place but I still can’t put the drawer in. Any suggestions?

@DeanFurnitureArtist Месяц назад

Really can’t give a good answer without being there and seeing what is going on. Sorry

@amandatownley2662 10 месяцев назад

I played the puzzle game and im having one drawer on the top right want to drag at the bottom. Itll slide in all the way but not smoothly. The beginning of the track inside the dtesser is partly broken so it thins a bit towards the front. Could this cause it to dip forward a bit?

@DeanFurnitureArtist 10 месяцев назад

Most definitely. Add a spacer under the track and see if it gets better 👍

@Aislynn775 8 месяцев назад

I CANNOT find a wooden shim for the bottome of the drawer. Anywhere. I now have to replace both the bottom & top-fitting shim. L

@DeanFurnitureArtist 8 месяцев назад

I normally just cut my own shims out of scrap wood

@carlabass1926 11 месяцев назад

What about drawer bottoms that are sliding out and hang up the drawer?

@2203jewel 7 месяцев назад

Where do you get the medal tracks.

@DeanFurnitureArtist 7 месяцев назад

Amazon. They call the tracks, slides and guides. Just have to do a little searching to find the one that matches what you need. You can also use google images. Take a photo of your track and let google find matches

@cejateresa13 4 месяца назад

How do you remove a drawer from broyhill Fontana drawer. The problem with the drawer it wobbles and lifts up. I put my hand thru the back center looks like a screw is missing to hold it down. Please help!

@DeanFurnitureArtist 4 месяца назад

If you can’t see or feel a drawer stop then the drawer stop is built into the track slide. Just give it a good hard pull to pass the bump stop.

@cejateresa13 4 месяца назад

Thankyou, I remove the drawer. I was very nervous of breaking it. I found the problem. Like I said it was missing a screw. Once I added the screw. No more problems. Thankyou so much for giving me the confidence to repair it. 🙂

@DeanFurnitureArtist 11 месяцев назад

Was the Gamer bed I just built not great stuff?? I thought it was pretty cool! Im still going to add in "how to" and "makeover" vids between the crazy builds that take weeks to complete. Vidoes coming up next are a Industrial Bar I built out of a old barn I tore down months ago, a dresser I transformed into industrial cabinet with big metal rivits and custom air brushing, and a INSANE 8 person Steampunk Poker table I built from scratch.
