    Removing Storehouse desk drawer
    I have a Storehouse desk which is about 12 years old. It is either pine or light oak. The drawers are set on a slider bracket. Something has fallen into the space behind one of the drawers and I cannot get the drawer off the bracket to remove what is obstructing the drawer from closing. Any thoughts on how to get this drawer off the bracket?
    Thanks.

    Can you remove any of the other drawers to give you a place to fish your hand in? It is most likely something sticking up inside the drawer and the objects hits the backside of the face. Something's shaking the heck of the desk will get things to settle. With my its usually a book or ruler that tilted up when I closed the drawer
