    Was that big bracket on the inside or outside of the game?

    What is that stuff on the outside corner of the game? Was the cabinet falling apart?

    Step one: remove leg
    Step two: remove corner cleat inside cabinet
    Step three: grab a jagged piece of scrap metal with a roughly ninety degree bend
    Step four: attach metal to cabinet
    Step five: spray paint metal inside cabinet
    Step six: ???????
    Step seven: profit

    Metal was inside cabinet. I then added wood to inside of cabinet for strength. Then body putty the entire outside to square it off so the leg would fit. That is my size 13 shoe!
