Not sure if this is plaster...or woodwork...or... so feel free to move me if I'm wrong.
Moved in a few years ago, my bedroom has a strange cupboard built into an alcove. It's always been too shallow for anything other than as a dumping ground.
I've set aside some time to rip it out and put up shelving - I honestly thought it would be a case of unscrewing it all and dismantling bit by bit, and fixing up the wall after, but half of it appears to have been plastered onto the brick - and the rest seems to glued onto that, no obvious screws or joints and it's stuck solid.
The interior walls are thicker and than the actual walls and shoddily plastered and hollow sounding.
I've removed the door and the first shelf no problem, The second shelf, well one side is sat in plaster, the other side sits on a support. Now i'm at a loss.
Any ideas how to get rid of this monster?
