Desk Fell Apart

hans5849 · 03-08-2008, 08:26 PM

I was getting ready to make my reservations for my trip home, I pulled out my keyboard and the tray fell out of the slide. I found a company who makes similar slides but can not find a distributor for the part I need.

This trip is off to a great start, I knew it was a bad idea from the beginning.

Uh, you can usually pop them back in the slide, it's pretty easy.

Sounds like a pretty easy fix

Unless the plastic tray itself cracked...

hans5849 · 03-08-2008, 09:55 PM

Yea, I tried popping it back in but it didn't work.

To me it looks like the metal is bent, a hammer couldn't put it back in and duct tape would make the tray useless.

the vid....
I luv it!!! See thread about The Netherlands

.
the desk.........
it is bent. Any way to disassenble it to the piont where you could straiten it with a pair of pliers?
That bent part is what holds the three parts of the glide togethere and stops the middle from coming out too far and thus disassembling itself. as johnny5 says: "no disassemble!!"
