Custom furniture/cabinet maker

$100

Kingston Foreshore ACT, Australia

7th Dec 2024

Should be an easy job for someone who knows what they are doing! I’m looking for someone to help me build a flat pack entertainment unit (per photos). However the legs it came with were too short, so I bought different legs. I need someone with custom furniture building experience so they can attach the new legs without damaging the unit. I expect this will involve drilling through the bottom panel of ply and installing some wood blocks for the screws to go into? Unsure if this is the best approach and happy to take advice. Also hoping the right person can offer me advice on a custom breakfast bar I want to build. I would want them to come back and help me with this as a second/separate job. Thanks!

Daisy did a great job explaining his approach to the task and made sure I was across decisions as he progressed. He did a good job
