Self-Assembly Nincompoop.




OK; so who was the wise-guy who put the wheels on upside-down?

The saga of self-assembly continues. I thought I could do this with my eyes closed. It's only a matter of putting on the wheels (which I've done several times before), but when I turned it over.....

Larf? I nearly slashed my wrists!!!

  3. It's an easy mistake to make.
    We assembled our shower cubicle with the panels upside down. It took us two years to work out that this was why it leaked.
    The problem was not as easily resolved as yours as undoing all the mastic, taking the damn thing apart and reassembling it proved to be too much of a battle so we put up with mopping the floor for a further two years then bought a new cabinet. Much simpler.

    1. 4 years of mopping does sound slightly annoying. I think your solution was the best.

  11. This sounds like something i would do because i'm mechanically retarded. I make notes for myself, and for boat items, i label them as they come off the boat. If it's something that needs to be screwed into something else, i've got instructions on the back of the tag.

    For those wheels, i think i'd need to write "other side up" on the bottom, so i'd know they'd be pointing the right way.
