[QUOTE="M107, post: 3785, member: 28"] Also (only 3 weeks ago) moved a fully loaded captains writing desk what looked like a very old and heavy writing desk, I shifted it on my own by lifting one end at a time. It worked well untill one of the legs caught on the carpet & split from bottom to top.....................oh ****** (or words to that effect)...I'm gonna have to be honest & tell the customer what happened....it's gonna cost was what I was thinking if I'm honest. Anyway I left the desk infront of the room door, customer (on the rotund side)comes charging in to see if I wanted a brew, doesnt see the leg splintered in half & pushed the desk .......creak snap spliter crash......the leg totally snaps dropping all the weight on the other leg snapping that aswell. Yes I did the honourable thing & kept my gob shut. He got it in the neck from his wife as it was from her side of the family who had a Naval background, the desk was antique & made from the wood taken off some old naval cutter sail ship that ran aground in Australia. Ooops. [/QUOTE]
