Some years ago I built a 2 drawer lateral file cabinet. I bought a catch set from Woodworker's Hardware that prevents both drawers being open at the same time, that is if one drawer was open, the other was locked. I need to build another and cannot find that piece of hardware. My question is: what is the correct name for that gizmo?
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.
