Despite the stick-figure instructions, I am having a problem gleaning the proper orientation for the drawerfront. Salamander is closed for the night, so here I sit with my IKEA on steroids furniture.

The photo on their website is ambiguous because it shows a slightly different drawerfront than came with mine.

There is scalop that runs the length of one of the long edges, while the opposite edge has only a notch at either end.

I have it with the scallop down, to accomidate fongers reaching in from underneath to pull the drawer open. Is this right? Thanks! Rob

    I figured it out- there is only one way it'll fit right.

    Man, this Synergy stuff is cool, but it is sooo flexible that it's a total pain in the **** to setup!

    Nearly everything is infinitely adjustable which is great once you get it in the ballpark. Downside is that once you slide a shelf/door/drawer into place, if you want to swap or add something, you must take everything out above it. It's a bit tedious, but the stuff looks and feels great. I think the trick is to sit down with a list of the gear you want to fit and then plan it out, otherwise you'll end up spending three hours on a 1 hour job (like me!).

    That was one piece, I got two more to build... Right after I get back from Starbucks! Here's the first one:

    Once you build one, he next one will be alot easier. Not the easiest furniture to learn.

    I have a Synergy unit and I love it. Very well built for a modular system.
