Hi,
I need to get some wooden supports made for a bed that has lost part of its base. What is needed is actually very simple, just a couple of blocks of wood cut to an exact height, with a groove cut in the top.
I was thinking there must be some sort of wood cutting place where I could get this made. I can easily draw a diagram of what is needed. I don't think I really need a "carpenter" as (to me) this implies a level of sophistication that isn't necessary.
Does anyone know where I could get this done? Does anyone know if it is possible to buy the wood somewhere like Hornbach where they would also do the (very simple) cutting.
Thanks for the help :-)
Cheers
Kathy

Your two closest options (if you are in Lausanne) are:
Obi in Renens (best selection)
Coop Brico at Lemans Centre
Each of them have a lumber cutting service.
Best to take a slat with you and ask them to copy it.
If you are down at the end of the lake, you can go to the Hornbach in Villeneuve.

Hi Kathy - James says, yes he has bits of wood in his garage and you're more then welcome to rummage through his piles!! Just let him know measurements and he has a little saw, a couple of axes and a work bench and a tape measure and a set square!
Far more fun than going to Obi!
I'll drop you his work email privately :-)
