Blum Drawer Slides – a bit sloppy….
Have any of you seen something like this? They are 563H’s….
Attached are the pictures of the bathroom vanity I made for my kids bathroom. It’s a small bathroom, so I kept it at 48” and they each get a side.
Anyways, my issue has to deal with the bottom right drawer, and the bottom right slide itself. It is very sloppy, so much so that if I use a paint stick as a spacer, it seems to level it up. Now I could move the slide itself up and level out the drawer, but the slide itself would still be sloppy.
I did use the Blum template to drill the hole in the back of the drawer, and I used a “B” drill bit, which is 0.238”, the 6mm called out by Blum is 0.236”, so I don’t think the 0.002” difference is causing the slop that I am seeing.
I purchased these exact ones off of Amazon, could I possibly have received some “knock off’s”?
