I need a metal base for fused glass drawer pulls

Post by deborahbur »

Where can I find a threaded metal base to use for glass drawer pulls? The treads need to be 8/32 or close, as that is the size of the hole in most cabinets and drawers.

Any help would be great.

I'm not sure about the size. (The catalog is at work.) But Aftosa had what you are asking about (I think). They were for ceramic drawer pulls. You might check their web site under new products.

glass knob hardware

Post by deborahbur »

Those are inserts and I need hardware that will glue on the back of the glass knobs so those will not work. Thanks.

They will work fine. Simply epoxy the glass on to the flat cylinder.

Sorry Deborah I thought there was a link to Leevalley Tools from Ron Coleman in this thread. Find that link and they are there and will work. Cylinrical stainless steel knobs with a flat front. Perfect for gluing.

I have them on all my cabinets. Now I have to make the glass pieces.....
I wanted to use my favorite maglesses, but my wife wants them to match. Who undertstands the female modus operendi??

Deborah, your link didn't work for me. I don't know what happened to the post with the original reference to insert knobs from Lee Valley, but here's the link:

Are these the ones you were referring to? Hope that link works, I don't think I am signed in to their site right now. Love Lee Valley, wonderful catalogs.
