Purchasing the Blumotion drawer damper can be very expensive, if you can find it at all. Thanks to adamazing for bringing this up in the comments. Note about the small piston-type door buffers / dampers: Before this project I attempted to use these to damp my drawers, but they didn't work well (drawers wouldn't self-close, or still slammed shut.) The Blumotion system with its long throw and spring+latch mechanism overcomes these issues.

Or so they thought:) Tools you will need: - drill - bolt cutter - small flat-head screwdriver - small hacksaw (I used a coping saw) - some bolts (small thread, M2.5 or 0.1' thread diameter) - some screws - ruler & pencil The only requirements for the existing drawer: - approx 12mm (0.5') clearance on either the left or the right of the drawer (almost any rail system will have this) - approx 9mm (0.35') clearance behind the drawer The drawer can be made of wood or metal - doesn't matter.
