Who's the anal one now? ;-)
Now I'll have to measure my cabinets when I go home. Thanks.
i can’t compete on the ANALITY scale with you, soother!! it is good to have an anal contractor though. Another issue that cropped up was that with the fridge pushed up to the wall behind, we could not open the left hand side of the fridge completely, which meant i could not pull out the drawer in the fridge. SO i asked Mr B to please pull it out. He did but even then it wasn’t 100% open but i could get the drawer open. He hypothesized on cutting out from the wall next to it, and i said no, ain’t butchering the kitchen just to get the drawer out. So what he devised instead, was adding a piece of wood to come down from top cabinets to the lower ones, alongside the fridge to block viewing of the space behind the fridge. he is going to have the backsplash continue around to that piece as well to have it uniform and completely finished off. he is amazing that way. did i mention how he is customizing this on his own? he ordered extra beadboard door panels to finish off the sides of the island, as well as the outside of the end cabinets. And he used leftover wood to fashion a crown moulding for below the cabinets to match that which was above? He’s doing this all on his own, we would never think of this stuff to ask him to do it.
excellent
Howdy, y’all!
Perfect!
look what the cat dragged in!
Bow chicka bow wow. ;-)
How does blocking off the view of the space behind the fridge help the door open more?
it permits you to pull the fridge as far forward as you need and to not have it looking stupid with all the space behind it. n u r an @$$ ; )
I understood completely and I am not even an engineer. LMAO
Isn’t it?
Hey Stranger, nice to see your smiling face in class.
I remembered my password!
How you been? I hope all is well for everyone!
that was a feat in and of itself!
Wish I could post pics of my grandaughters, i don’t have a pic hosting site anymore.
Oh, wait, maybe I can, but after lunch, it’s ROAST BEEF AND GRAVY time! WOOHOO!!!!!
the class is suddenly full of GRANDPAPS! conspiracy guy was posing grandbaby pix last night. all i can say is i am glad i am young enough that my baby is a college freshman and no grandchildren at this stage of life! xsteen is going to turn 25 next month and is likely to be engaged in the not to distant future and that is more than enough for me!
You have got to be excited-I hope the granite completes a perfect look.
The cabinets above are 14” deep, and the lower ones are 24” deep, but I had a cabinetmaker I worked with build them, making the lower ones extra deep to hold big bowls and cooking pots. I like the look and usefulness well enough that I’ll have the same guy build the same cabinets again for my nest.
I’m way too young to be a granddaddy, but I still like the kids!
I don't have as many pics as I thought!
Kiss fish?
