Hi all-
We have several map drawers that are very hard to open mainly because
the wheels in the back of the drawers are old and bent. We'd like to
contact a map cabinet vendor to see if replacing wheels is even
possible. It looks like the majority of our cases are from the Hamilton
Manufacturing Company. I did a google search for them and did not find
them. They are also not listed as one of the cabinet vendors on the WAML
website (see http://www.waml.org/maptools.html#mapcabs). Any ideas if
they still exist? Or does anyone out there think contacting a different
map cabinet vendor would help? Could the wheels maybe be interchangeable?
Thanks-
Ilene
