More Assembly Work

Cheryl and I committed more IKEA last night, assembling the chest of drawers that we'd purchased a few weeks ago but not had time to assemble. Even then, we didn't do it until late evening, with the India-Bangladesh one-day international cricket from MediaZone playing. After assembling the main frame, we got it down to quite the assembly line, with Cheryl assembling the drawers (the part that needs a rubber mallet to drive in the fasteners) and me attaching the sliders and handles (which goes faster when you have a power screwdriver).

Result: a second good chest of drawers, and all of the clothing that was previously stored on the old green bookcase is now stored away properly. The bookcase has been banished to the patio pending final disposition.
