You may not need the curve part, put the drawer in from of the base and see it may fit flush without the curve part

Joe the corner curved pieces are just for supprt and strength the are just at 90 degrees and don't need to be curved on the outside.

Glenn,

I'm working on my HOTHER box right now. When I get it all back together I'll pull the wood off the iron and bring it inside. That will make it easier to work on it.

Protecting the Decal on the bed of a Vintage sewing machine

Charlee this is what I do to protect the bed decal on these old ladies when I sew with them. I get these magnetic things from ST. Vin. that I put over the decals while I sew

Thanks Bennett--those are the ones that I like to take on. the ones that are almost trash without being rescued, but $100 is waaaaay too much. Maybe she will change her mind. She has my number.
