Alustil Assembly?
I picked up a walnut extendable table from their Jalan Ipoh showroom about two years back. The top came fully joined, you just bolt the legs on, so it's really the base assembly you're dealing with, not the whole piece. Bring a friend for the flip at the end because lifting a solid wood top solo is where people scratch the finish. A rubber mallet and the hex key they include are honestly enough, no need for a drill.
heads up on the delivery side, their lorry guys wont help carry it upstairs past your lift lobby. mine was a 6ft oak top and the fella just watched me and my wife wrestle it through the corridor. also check the underside for the felt pads before you flip it, one of mine was missing and i only noticed after i'd already dragged it across the tiles. takes maybe 20 mins to assemble once its inside, the hard part is the logistics not the build.
Just make sure you have a second person on hand for the tabletop flip.
KL Bird Park Mystery
the back area past the hornbill enclosure? i've heard keepers call it the quarantine row. new arrivals & sick birds go there first before they get moved into the main aviaries, so the "sad" look is often just stress from transport or treatment. some of those rare ones are on loan from perhilitan for rehab, they rotate out once they're healthy. if u go on a weekday morning you can sometimes catch a keeper near the gate, they'll usually tell u what's in there if u ask nicely
tbh that hidden section is prob the old breeding block, not quarantine. they used to run captive breeding programs there for hornbills and some pheasant species back in the 2000s, and when funding dried up they just kind of left the structure standing. the birds u saw are likely the last few residents of that program, too imprinted to release so they stay put. if u want the real story ask for the head keeper at the main office, the front desk staff usually don't know much about it.
oh that area near the back ponds right? i think those are confiscated birds from the wildlife dept, smuggled ones that got seized at klia. they keep em there quietly cos some are protected species and they dont wanna draw attention. not a retirement home, more like a holding spot.
