On my way home from an overnight stay in the Big Valley, I heard wood cracking inside the coach and within seconds a loud crash behind me. I looked into the mirror and saw my driver side cabinets and the content all over the floor. The cabinet broke from the weight? or the bad road condition I was on at the time. At home I discovered that the cabinet was assembled with staples ONLY. NO GLUE! The front side with the doors is solid wood and the rest is slats and 1/4 inch plywood. NO GLUE! Now I need some advise as to the repair. Most parts a still solid and can be reused. Do I remove all of the cabinet and rebuild it outside of the coach or can I reassemble in place?
I am not a carpenter or cabinet maker, but can do home repairs.
Thanks for your help.
