Repaira damaged leadlight/stained glass lampshade

$70

Sydney, New South Wales

4th Jul 2026

I am hoping to request a quote to repair my damaged leadlight/stained glass lampshade. It's a small lampshade approximately 20cm by 20cm, and 20cm tall. There is separation between the top metal fixture and the glass pieces, while nothing is broken yet and it’s still able to hold the whole weight of the lamp I’m worried it will break in time. Apologies if the quote is really off I'm going off what google has told me and am willing to adhere to professional advice.

Experienced Cabinetmaker or Furniture Restorer Needed

$500

Sydney NSW 2000, Australia

3rd Jul 2026

Experienced Cabinetmaker / Furniture Restorer Needed – Make Large Solid Wardrobe Fit Apartment I’ve inherited a large, heavy, solid pine wardrobe. It’s a single, non‑flat‑pack piece and, as it stands, it will not fit through a tight internal hallway corner. I need an experienced cabinetmaker, joiner or furniture restoration specialist to design and carry out a professional solution so this wardrobe can be brought into the apartment and used long‑term, without turning it into a “hack job.” This is a structural furniture problem, not a basic removalist task.It's pprox. 235 cm high, 120 cm wide 53 cm deep. Solid pine construction & very heavy. Continuous solid back panel (no factory joints or seams) Traditional doors and lower drawer section at the front Currently stored in the building carport with good access. The issue is the internal hallway turn, we couldn't get it into the bedroom and Please look at the piece, and propose a solution. In your offer, please clearly explain: Your overall approach How you would get this wardrobe into the apartment given the access constraint. What steps you’d take to keep it structurally sound and visually coherent afterwards. How you’ll deal with structure and movement How you’ll prevent racking, wobble or long‑term weakness once it’s in place and full of clothes. How you’ll handle doors, drawers and alignment How you’ll protect and, if necessary, remove doors and drawers. How you’ll make sure they still operate cleanly (even gaps, no binding) when the wardrobe is in its final position. How you’ll protect existing paint and mouldings while you work. Please send photos or links of your past work I want to ensure the wardrobe is safe, stable and fully usable in its final location. Budget: $500 (indicative). I understand this is a specialist, time‑intensive job - I will be choosing based on the quality of your approach and your track record, not just price. Thank you!

Carpenter needed to make hobbit bunk bed

$500

Sydney NSW, Australia

14th May 2026

Looking for a skilled carpenter/set builder who can help me get my kids dream bed. Would love to use reclaimed wood and discards from the saw mill. Please quote me for time and materials and let me know if you’ve done any such projects before. The size will be for two single mattresses. Snug and magical. 🧙‍♀️ The bunk bed needs to be easy to dismantle and reassemble since we are in a rental. UPDATE: I was thinking to make it something fun and practical. Maybe get an old wooden bunk bed off market place and have a ply wood wrap around to keep it cost efficient? An old ladder to fix up in the front similar to the reference. The wrap around could be hooked onto the bunk bed. Same with the ladder.
