Installed most of my cabinets .need one 36" wall cabinet and a 15" all drawer base all the way to the right. With a small frige in the middle. I mounted the cabinets on the gas curb and will be installing legs on the front of the cabs. Used menards unfinished oak cabs and counter tops The open area in the center is like a desk area and there will be a flat panel tv on the wall there. Looks like I have some painting to do too. I can feel the end is near. I need some rest!! The wood legs are temporary. And that is a lazy suzan in the corner.

Lookin good Brent!
Menards has some great deals.
Those cabinets are just the ticket.

So far so good, keep up the good work.

Ok Its time to paint. I put a small fridge in too.

I used 1/2" carriage bolts for the front legs.( Stainless) Seeing the floor is pitched and the back of the cabs are screwed to the wall sitting on the gas curb. I got lucky the concrete guys did a decent job and they were pretty level. So I cold adjust each leg exactly. Too tell ya the truth the cabs were solid just mounted to the wall. But this is better!! Mounting them on the wall on the gas curb gave me two benefits. Got the cabs off the floor for cleaning and saved some space since theres no wasted space behind them.
