Week 48
The culmination of the bed dismantling and reassembly exercise I started weeks ago.
I finally managed to gouge out all the snapped off plastic fittings using a selection of screwdrivers, hand drill, pliers and a meat tenderiser (don't ask!).
Next stage was to find replacement fittings on t'interweb- I'm amazed at the variations in size, number of prongs, suitability for wood (not metal) etc. Finally, I chose the best option and they were delivered Saturday. Of course, they're not exactly the same and I had to make a few "adjustments" but.........all slats are now in place and the bed will be usable again![Smile](https://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/grapevine/core/images/smilies/smile.gif)
(once I've had my weetabix and can move mattresses around)
