This is going to be my desk area.

The kitchenette is across from this area. Electrician was working there
today, pulling three 20-amp lines.

No injuries, amazing considering my klutziness.

Should have the wall cabinets on the other side done tomorrow...

That would be baño, not bano, and no. Bathroom in that area was built
when I built the house.

Shame? Oh...guess I forgot to mention the manufacturer's name, but,
then, I'm not pimping for a magazine.

Sears always sells the best Mexican made cabinets

Ahhh. You are referring maybe to the printing on the cabinet boxes. I
didn't notice that. The cabinets are manufactured in Virginia. Many
manufactured products these days are "wrapped" in packaging that
describes the contents in several languages.- Hide quoted text -

Good thing you're more discerning about boats than you are
woodworking.

Pine drawers with butt instead of dovetail joints, drawer suspension
jammed into a plastic "hanger" against a backerboard of dubious
ancestry, thinnest possible frame stock and drawer fronts, 1-2 thin
coats of "finish". Nobody builds a boat down to the standards of your
office furniture- not for several years now.

At least you're stepping up a bit, however. Check out that old black
desk! That thing must weigh a zillion pounds. I had no idea they made
pressboard as thick as the top of that monster (see the hawse for your
computer connections, etc).

You really ought to be paying some attention to your roof. Nasty
looking stain on the wall just to the left of the Casablanca poster.
Looks like a defective hull (wall) to (roof) deck joint to me. Are you
planning to extend the "uppers" over the couch and thereby hide the
stain?

No, but I am planning to redo four kitchens and five bathrooms before
fall so stay tuned. Posting the photos of such projects is apparently
consistent with the theme of a boating NG and will be of interest to
all. :-)

If only you knew what you were talking about. Oh...the stain...that's
where two colors meet, and where I did a drywall seam repair which isn't
quite finished. No water. Once I finish the seam repair, another color
will be applied over the white. Good eyes, though.

The desk is an old steel monster, with a formica top. Served me well.
I'm going to use it now as an electronics work table. It is very heavy.

The new cabinet fronts and frames are solid hickory. I saw no reason to
spend what I did in the kitchen...this is for a light-use kitchenette,
and is more than enough for my purposes.

You've really turned yourself into the snark of the newsgroup, Chuck.
Consider yourself lucky I don't respond in kind. Don't you have another
advertorial you can pimp here?

Harry,
Just ignore Chuck, compared to your taste in artwork, your inexpensive
cabinets are top notch.

Chuck,
Please post pictures of the cabinets still in the box. It would really
be of special interest if you would keep us posted by tracking the
cabinets as they are shipped and post daily updates as to their location.

some hod.

Damn, that would have been almost as interesting and fun as the photos
published in rec.boats. Tough luck JohnH, you blew it.

I can just see you running a table saw.
If I were contracting this job out, I wouldn't have said a peep.
I'm also planning to do a patio this summer, masonry, of course. Will
post progress photos...

Please enlighten us, Harry. Of what use was a table saw in the installation
of prefabricated cabinets?
