Req 6h — Drawer and Cabinet Hardware

6h.
Fix a drawer slide or fix/replace cabinet pulls.

When a drawer sticks or a cabinet pull starts loosening, people often keep using it until the damage gets worse. This requirement teaches a better habit: address hardware problems while they are still small and before screw holes, slides, or drawer faces wear out further.

This job is about function and neatness at the same time. A drawer that closes smoothly and a pull that sits straight both show careful work.

Next, the guide turns from hands-on repairs to future paths — either careers in the field or ways to build these skills into a long-term hobby.
