Mating! Ten ways! Is HARD!
So, the wardrobe is not quite as tall as my ceiling, but is tall enough that it could not be assembled on the ground and then tilted up against the wall. Instead, the first half was put together on the floor, but the other two pieces were joined while the base was standing up. Now, mating 5 screws and dowels at the bottom of an 8-foot board is difficult, especially when you are holding it from behind, unable to see, and trying to follow someone else's enthusiastic but ultimately-not-specific-enough directions. Picture this, however - trying to mate 10 screw and dowel ports while holding a heavy, 4-foot board over your head with your arms outstretched, eight feet in the air, with no direction whatsoever. Awesome, right??!! Did I mention that we were putting together two adjoining wardrobes?
