My simple fix for wobbly cabinet drawers | Cabinetmakers

Adding a dab of glue to the joint stiffened it right up.

That glue trick works for a bit, but it can make future repairs a real pain... you have to break the glue seal. Mark102, if it loosens again, try a thin wood shim instead. Just tap it into the gap with a hammer, then trim off the extra.

My hands are shakier than the drawer was, so this fix was a miracle.
