That's gonna be a good trick to get out intact. My first inclination is to have a good look at whatever back that cabinet has on it. May be able to get at the problem if the back can be removed without disturbing anything else. Then shove a bundle of towels or blankets under that tea set.
Of Course it would be beveled glass, so whacking a hole to reach in and grab everything is not happening.. If it could be jheld tight enough to not vibrate, maybe access through the top?
Can't see what else is in it, Any way to tilt the thing?
Don't tilt it onto its back, lay it face down, on padded blocks so the door is a few inches off the floor, just enough height to allow enough space to get the tea set out. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR, PUT PADDED BLOCKS UNDER THE DOOR TO LEAVE THE DOOR FLAT AND OPEN THE CABINET.
Or you could try blocking the entire cabinet just high enough off the floor to allow opening the door, and elevating the hinge side slightly so if the tea set slides it will be toward the door opening, not the hinge side. The tea set is already against the glass in the door, openng it slightly will allow it to slide across the glass to the opening.
At first I thought great idea but if there is loads of stuff on other shelves could be a problem. Maybe stout thin rod, crack the door and try to push it back on the shelf.
it was a temblor!

DeleteOh snap! At first I thought it was a sticker on her glass. You're screwed buddy!
ReplyDeleteHmm. Schrodinger's Dishes?
ReplyDeleteJust walk away, cause that definitely looks like someone else's problem.
ReplyDeletePut the entire assembly up into space.
ReplyDeleteBig fish net and open the door really fast. If it breaks, at least you tried
