John,you should of used a cable tie as a welding rod,as it would of added strength to the handle.

[@AverageAngler]

Yes a few people have mentioned that😊👍

Great bit of 'bodging in the shed' mate love it 😝😝

[@AverageAngler]

☹️🤣☹️🤣Cheers

I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago. Think it’s probably caused by using the drawer handle for lifting the top part of the box up when you want to seperate from the base. A couple of small screws countersunk through the ends of the handle does the trick

[@AverageAngler]

I did that on my last box, does work.😊👍

[@peterroome5018]

I'm sure you've been sniffing to much of the fumes mate but you do make me laugh!! 😂😂😂😂

[@AverageAngler]

I don't need fumes I am already wrong in the head🤣😂😴😂

The older style deep drawer like that on my Inception Station looks like it's all one piece, there's no rubbery feel to it at all, and it doesn't have the tube moulded in to the narrow section for the locking peg, so they've clearly tweaked things over time.
The currently available versions of the deep drawer unit look like they're the same between Absolute/Inception to me, but from what I can find, do have different part numbers.

[@AverageAngler]

Thanks Mikey, good info😊👍

[@terrywall3034]

Weld it together with a tie wrap

[@AverageAngler]

I wasn't sure if mixing 2 plastics would work but others have said the same😊👍

[@AverageAngler]

A few people mentioned this, perhaps will try that next time

[@jamesatkinsfishing]

Hi John, would not polymorph beads do the trick ?

[@AverageAngler]

Only got white ones, might have looked a bit messy, but a great idea😊👍
