    Sad Accident

    Evidently a little girl was crushed by furniture that was not secured to the wall:

    We're all woodworkers, so it should be an easy task for us to secure furniture for the safety of our children.

      I am horrified beyond words. Dunno what to say.

          It does happen. My wife's nephew somehow tipped the TV & cabinet it was sitting on when he was about 5 or 6. It almost landed on his younger brother.

          This is the main reason purchased furniture always comes with some kind of strap to fasten furniture to the wall.

              why do I have a feeling the kid tried to use an open drawer as a step stool to change the channel?

              very sad.

              If at first you don't succeed, deny you were trying in the first place.
