Thanks :)
Well, I have a vice so I may be ok on that one then. I think I'll buy the parts and then have look at all the bits and see which way to go. I wonder if an oversize bolt could be used and the threads either squashed in a vice or filed down... probably not 'top drawer' but another thought :D
Here's to no more rattling!

That one would fall out of the gap at the back of the bottom drawer :lol:

It will all appear much simpler when you have the parts, I assure you!
