Handyman

[yosithezet]

I have a bed that was delivered from abroad and needs to be put together. Does anyone have a handyman that might be able to do this?

And exactly what is the point of your posting except to have a go at the OP??

The OP has asked for Handyman, if you can't help don't post.

This is exactly, as I said the other day, this forum has gone down hill

if it was a cabinet, and such, I see a handyman being ok

But, my take was, if it is a bed, wouldn't it be easy peasy ?

sorry to have rubbed on your raw nerves ..

have a great day ..

cheers

People have different levels of mechanical dexterity. Some people can build a car by hand, some people couldn't figure out how to put together a cardboard box.

That said, OP can try to search for one in the classifieds--I looked; there are recent ads there. If not satisfied, you can also look on the web. Pick one and call them to ask if they can assemble your bed for you.

You can also try asking ecureilx to do it you.

We have a teak wood platform bad. It's weight is probably >300kg. It's design is modular but I don't think my wife would be able to carry/move individual sections (without damaging the parquet for example). The sections are interconnected with some custom made screws that has to be tighten in a very confined space. So you never know What difficult with the cabinets!?

And even Ikea furniture sometimes need more than two hands to assemble!

Google for 'handyman Singapore' and quite a few companies come up.

I'm with Saint... you want 'witty' answers, try the Angry Board.

my humble 2 cents says, a witty answer, as long as it is not offending, keeps the thread at the top, and alive, unlike massive thread drifts .. as I have seen some thread go ..

like, when a discussion on handy man becomes an argument on why Singapore sucks, for example .. or a discussion on maid issue becomes why Singaporeans need maids ..

no further comments .. And I maybe massively wrong ..
