STEP 1
Assemble Side Panels
A. Each side panel consists of two (2) legs,
one (1) top side brace and one (1) glide support
brace. When assembled, diagonal legs will be the
same (i.e. Front Right/Back Left & Front Left/Back Right).
Side panels are identical when assembled – the drawer
glides will determine left and right sides.
B. Tap a 3/4” pin in each end of the top side braces.
Take each of the 4 legs and install one (1) bastion post per
leg, on the side of the leg which also has two (2) pin holes
for the glide support sticks. Locate post holes. Tap posts
in with hammer until threads engage wood; turn posts
down until the solid shaft hits the wood (all threads are
into wood), then back post out until the hole in the post is
perpendicular to the long length of the leg (about 1/2 turn).
C. Lay out Front Left leg, one (1) top side brace and back
left leg as in Illustration 1A. Note the two pilot holes for the
L brackets are along the top inside of the top side brace.
D. Take the top side brace and drop a barrel-shaped
bronze bastion nut into the nut access hole as illustrated.
Threaded end of the nut faces out. Insert front left leg
post into the hole in the end of the brace, through the side
of the barrel nut, until the hole in the post can be seen
through the threaded end of the nut. Insert the set screw
into the nut and tighten down. The tip of the set screw will
seek the center of the bastion post as it is tightened, leav-
ing a tight joint. If the joint is loose, check to make sure the
set screw is not cross-threaded or that the post is out too
far (not threaded into leg deep enough.) See Instructions
for Bastions illustrations on page 3 for clarrification of as-
sembly.
E. Insert two 3/4” pins into each end of the glide support
brace. Position brace such that the pilot holes for attaching
the glide are towards the top edge. Insert brace pins into
the holes on the inside of the left front leg as illustrated (4
pilot holes out).
F. Fit Towel bar into hole below twin holes for
drawer glide support brace.
G. Attach Back Left leg in same manner.
H. Repeat for other side panel.
