Just thought I would get your ideas on the preferred method for attaching this top. A friend of mine wanted this dresser refinished. When I got it the top was barely holding on. The wood is poplar if the pictures are not good enough for you to tell. The top was attached to the frame using these blocks glued to the top and sides.
This is another more overall look at how they did it.
This is an older dresser as it was probably built by a sibling of his grandmother. Here is one more photo of the frame and the blocks remaining on it.
Would anyone like to suggest their preferred method for reattaching the top whether it be reglue it or another method? It may help you to know that the top and both sides are glued up panels if it does not show well in the pictures. Also the thickness of the top is a little under 3/4 inch. If you would like more info. on which to base your opinion please let me know. Thanks in advance.
