    With the cabinet number or name you could definately get help.


    Quick thought looking at cabinet again. Will the door open wider tobe level with rest of cabinet . And will the door fit at the end of the cabinet left side onto the door . Then a leg could be missing.
    Can't find model # anywhere...just says Horn of America.

    No metal piece to come out above top drawer...there is a magnet to keep the door closed.

    The door does open out to be flush with front of cabinet. No legs and it doesn't show any marks like there would have ever been one...that is a big mystery. There is a hole at the bottom of table that I assume held a pull to lift it.

    I have a Horn, but a different model.

    The shelf on the door on my model lifts up and there is a type of leg that pulls out that the shelf rests on.

    Could you post a picture of the shelf that is attached to the door lifted up? I can't figure out what else to suggest to you.

    Does the leg come out of the cabinet or is it attached to the table's underside?

    Here are pics of my table held up and under.

    yep, something is missing. There are times when I just don't use some parts of cabinets because they just aren't all that easy to use or comfortable. perhaps you have a plastic rolling cabinet of drawers that might fit under that pull up shelf? or can find a piece of wood to use as a prop (a man project). I went through many images of Horn's and didn't see yours. Good luck. (maybe you could rig a new toilet plunger for a shelf stand)...

    I found a photo of a Horn cabinet just like yours on eBay. It appears there is a part missing from your cabinet. It is the second picture down on this page: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trks...at=0&_from=R40

    Maybe you can contact the person you bought it from and ask if there is another piece, or contact Horn and ask if they sell replacement parts. Hope this helps.

    THANK YOU THANK YOU! That is it....and now I understand what is missing...I think my husband can make that piece. I never thought of it looking like that.

    Nativetexan....I love your idea of a plunger for a leg too! You all have good imaginations...Thanks again for all you ideas and suggestions...brain storming does work.
