Good Morning!
So your pet ferret wiped it's butt across your table screen and we are supposed to think that's better?Im allergic to cats. Besides, it’s 2024. We’re paperless.
Sure, it's as strong in compression as the load bar you are getting.A single 2x4 for that big heavy 5'6" long 3'6" tall thing? Have fun with that, take video for us.
$3.35 near me for a 2x4x8: https://www.lowes.com/pd/2-in-x-4-in-x-96-in-Spruce-Pine-Fir-Kiln-dried-Stud/1000074211Besides, aren't 2x4s like $20 nowadays?
You brace across like this:It's just like every other thread where someone says "hey I want a cheap headlight for my Toyota".
And the horde comes in with "sell the Toyota and buy a superduty".
Edit: You don't get it because you can't see the setup and layout.
You're not going to spiderman crawl your way up the wall across from the cupboard and press your feet against the wall on other side while using superman left arm to push cupboard back while right arm sends in the screw. Not happening.
Some of you people are so fucking retarded you actually need this picture to understand my words.
2x4 method requires too many hands to hold too many things in place. On top of that, why would you buy/cut a piece of wood and then source more wood and even more to add all that shit to this equation that only calls for 1 single tool instead?
It will hold itself in place until you screw the cabinet in to the wall. No extra hands needed.
Getting a new tool out of a project is always a good thing, but the 2x4 will work just as well as the load bar will.This situation due to the space between the wall across from the cupboard and the weight and size and location of the cupboard calls for this tool. I shouldn't need to spell all this shit out because I've already covered it myself and my goal was to score this tool but not at Amazon high price. Using this tool is the best way to do it and for $17 to get it done nice and easy and then keep the tool for future use is the best option here no matter how hard you try to say it's not.
Personally I already have enough scrap lumber that it would be faster to use a piece of that out of the barn than go buy a load bar that I will likely never use again, but that's me and I don't have an enclosed trailer to use it in.
