Fitting a new kitchen and B&Q only allow for one draw in there 400mm cabinets. As this was going to leave very few draws in the kitchen I decided I could fix this by making my own draw fronts by cutting down full sized doors with a router. The style of the kitchen has continuous profile with 2mm plastic strips on the top and bottom of the doors/draw fronts.
No problem I thought cut these off with 2-3mm of chipboard still attached and dunk them in an old tray full of water. Give it a week and the chipboard will disintegrate and I can then glue the plastic strips onto my new draw fronts.
Problem is that three weeks later the chipboard is not showing any signs of disintegrating, thought it has swollen up. How much longer do you think it will take or am I on to a loosing wicket?
