Plastic Drawer Repair Kit

thingiverse

This is a straightforward solution that really delivers results. If one of the support legs on your plastic storage unit has given way, you can usually cut out the broken section and swap it with my easy-to-make patch. It's then secured firmly between two lengths of tube-like material that are held together using bolts or rivets. Just resize according to what you need and remember - the parts may have holes but they're not irreplaceable. I made the design around 3mm fasteners, so don't hesitate to drill a few more if needed. Some people might call this overkill for a repair job, but I disagree strongly. After all, we do involve some duct tape in the mix! Let's hope this ends up helping someone. Have fun making it! Instructions Measure your problem drawer. Resize parts accordingly and print them out. Cut away the damaged part of the drawer. Duct tape holds everything in place for a temporary fix, which is made more permanent with those tube-like lengths of metal afterwards.
