damage caused by rubbing tab pulls/finger pulls.
I'm trying to find out if anyone else has had experience with stopping or slowing damaged caused by finger pulls, tab pulls, or edge pulls. Not exactly sure what they're called. We just installed a new kitchen and knew that these were a little thick but had enough space in theory if nothing moved. But we didn't really calculate in the weighing down of the drawers once we put stuff in them. now they seem to be rubbing the bottom of the drawer with the top of the edge pulls.
I'm less concerned with the damage to the hardware itself. We have extra and can replace them when they get bad. I'm more concerned about it tearing apart the bottom of the drawer. One solution we thought of as a possible clear coat or plastic coating that's super thin, obviously, like a protective covering for a phone. But, of course, don't have any idea where to get something like that..
Anyone else experience anything like this? come up with a solution?

Comments (6)Its hard to see a piston head, looking through the hole where the spark plug goes. If you stick your thumb over the spark plug hole, and have someone rotate the flywheel for you, you should feel some air pressure against your thumb. That would be a crude compression check. You could bend a piece of coat hanger wire to stick down into the cylinder, so it has to touch the piston head, and then repeat the test, turning the flywheel. The piston has to move, up and down, as the flywheel is turned....See MoreLeaks - Pipe cannot pull out of the joint and can be pulled out
Comments (34)I realize that this is an old thread but I want to respond for anyone with a similar problem in the future. I am amazed that someone would tell you to hire a licensed plumber for such an incredibly easy job. Come on, folks! Have we become so helpless? When I read the question, I assumed it was about copper or galvanized pipe which would be very easy to fix too but then I saw it's PVC pipe. Nothing could be easier to fix and I have no idea why the person asking the question thinks he cannot remove the elbow. Of course you can remove it! You can simply cut it out with a hacksaw and put in a new elbow. You can extend the pipe that is cut off easily with just a union and a piece of PVC. Working with PVC is so incredibly easy that I am baffled about why the question was even asked. A proper repair would take about ten minutes and cost a couple dollars. I never cease to be amazed by how helpless people are becoming. This is pretty sad....See MoreShow me your cabinet knobs and pulls!!

last yearWhen it comes to redrilling the holes, barely down, here’s what I did. Fill the original handle holes with wood filler or epoxy. You have to do a clean job
Next, use a self centering bit so that the handle is mounted perfectly.
