Went to Ikea on the w/e and came back with everything I need to install a new vanity in the bathroom...
...everything except the frame for the drawers :doh: I blame the woman that served us as she left it off the picking list :) Not my fault, honest :wink:
Anyhow, not such a big drama as the drawer cabinet is only 390 deep and that would leave a gap that I would need to hide with an end panel, which I reckon would start to look tacked on.
So what I have decided to do is to build the drawer cabinet from scratch using a sheet of melamine from bunny's. The only measurement I need to confirm is the inside spacing between sides so that the rails will screw up nicely and not be pulled out of shape or too tight. The measurement I have come up with is 368mm - if any one has a Vattern 3 draw unit (http://www.ikea.com/au/en/catalog/products/S89824372) could you pretty please measure the inside for me and let me know.
Thanks :2tsup:
