My daughter has given me the task of fixing her broken drawer (39 wide x 7 high x 17 deep). When I remove the handle , the drawer box does not separate. The tails seem to be part of the drawer front , So either the front of the drawer is glued on or machined from a singe piece of wood.
The chest of drawers is probably from the mid 60s. Very flimsy construction. The sides are 3/8, the bottom is 1/8. Has a center guide system on the bottom.
The only good piece is the drawer front.
Is there any way to seperate the drawer front from the drawer box (drawer box front would be 39 x 7) so that I can attach a new drawer box. Any other thoughts?
