We currently have a bowl that holds one gallon and I fill it twice almost every day.I didnt even read the text…that said, If you don’t know what the very edge of a dog is, you should probably get a cat instead. Basic dog owner knowledge. Geeze.
I think you might know a guy that can help with that!.......Now I gotta come up with a way to store it all......
I didn’t buy the base because I didn’t (damn auto complete) like the final working height. I’m 6’1” (and no longer bendy for long periods of time) and prefer ops to happen at the 38-42” height. That said, I wish I had ordered it now because I could have pulled it off the pallet and had it set up with I a few hours of receiving it. Building one now pushes that out maybe even a month…oh well
Is always a valid approach to consider!hulk smash.
Was your wife not home or is she really understanding? If i used my high lift in the house it would the headstone for my shallow grave in the backyard.Then pinned it down in spots so it couldn’t lift and used a high lift jack to “make” it lift away.
She was actually taking picture and video of it. Neither of us thought heat would help but doing it ended up fairly entertaining.
I was wondering the same thing. I got two of those lazy Suzy corner cabinets in my kitchen. One is just like the one that was in your kitchen Lilscorpion and I have another one that has the square outside casing with a round lazy Suzy inside. The nice thing about the one with the round casing is it keeps things on the shelves when others in the house overstuffs the shelves. While the one with the square casing will get jammed up with the **** that everyone stuffs in that cabinet, and it results in me having to get inside with long arms or grabbers and pull all of the stuff out until I can clear the jam. I've seen those wild elaborate pull-out drawers in the corner cabinets that seems like a better system, but I never priced what one would cost. Honestly, I was kind of expecting Lilscorpion to have one of those elaborate drawer pull-out kinds of cabinet coming in to fill in the void!
I was wondering about this too. It was pointed out how much space was wasted with the old corner cabinet but now I feel there is more wasted space in this config.
Nothing, it’ll be a dead hole. That’s how we had it in the last house as well. Very much dislike the lazy Susan/hidden corner BS. They’re not very space optimized.
I am able to use the machine to build them fancy cabinets but, after considering the needs for storage, wider and deeper cabinets were deemed more valuable which is why we decided to favor the cabinets to the side. Interestingly enough, if you do the math, even those fancy angle drawers have a lot of void space and the storage space inside is kinda wonky. I wanted to build them so I could say I did but in the end it didn’t make sense.I I've seen those wild elaborate pull-out drawers in the corner cabinets that seems like a better system, but I never priced what one would cost.

The corner is that one area I don’t care about. Maybe it’s a personal preference thing…the issue is you need to use up some space left and right of the corner cabinets so you can access that corner which impacts the space in those cabinets as well. Then, if you make the corner cabinets deep
I feel like with your skills you could build this corner lift instead of buying it. Put the kegerator in the basement and feed chilled glycol lines up into the cabinet with the tap motorized to come up.Nothing, it’ll be a dead hole. That’s how we had it in the last house as well.

To compensate for things I need to have a deep cabinet for, it won’t be wide… It’s a catch 22.
If I could make a hidden access panel I could probably squeak a kegerator in there….

Those are sweet! You have me wondering how to shoe horn that into my existing kitchen. I have kitchen cabinets and then its just a huge accessible void off to the side. I store **** i only need rarely over there, but what a pain to empty the cabinet to practially crawl in to get the **** back in the deep void.My wife has said she wants one of these (actually two) for when we do the kitchen remodel. Amazing use of space, but they are pricey! Virtually eliminates any wasted shape from being easily accessible.

Now that’s an interesting idea…I’m the basement with feed lines up…hm

I've got the same problem in my kitchen, been planning to build a lift to shove the giant hobart mixer down in that space. Lift, use, drop out of sight when done. What else is a corner space than a **** catcher?
Air is cheap too and may be less complicated to implement. I’m going to greatly simplify the install and leverage my home automation controller, a home automation relay to do the grunt work, air solenoids, and air cylinders. Probably get it all done for less than $150 for 3 gates. I won’t do anything with voltage detection, I’m not sure that juice is worth the squeeze. Mostly because hitting a button to turn on/off the dust collection at each machine (meaning on button would open/close all the necessary gates and turn on/off the dust collector) is enough of an optimization I thinkWatching as I've acquired the components for same thing for mine, only on 6" gates and using PLC instead of Arduino.
I debated servos/stepper instead of air for actuating, but air is just so easy. I'm planning on mounting the solenoid on the blast gate instead of in a central cabinet which should make plumbing easier with just a supply line to each but will have to run wire as well...so tradeoffs.
@slodat had some great input on my thread when I started posting some of what I was planning on, his post with the links to his build are below

Close up of the mount block for the vertical pipe mount, repurposed the temporary proof of concept horizontal holders by taking a 1/4" off the base with the bandsaw and then a couple picture hanger D-ring type pieces to use as cinch points for the double sided velcro Bandsaw makes a decent...
Curious what you end up doing for your makeup air. Active makeup air is still a "to do" for me as the passive system is totally inadequate for the 1500 cfm hood we have. Currently we open a kitchen casement window whenever we run the hood.
I’m pleased with the progress even though I complain. Gotta keep hustling tho, I still feel like I’m being chased by the commitments I made to get this place…
No, just one (thank goodness). Dual fuel, ie gas burners and electric ovens.
Read it too fast. Dual fuel does make more sense. We love ours but admittedly we’ve only used the griddle part once and found it a pain in the a$$ to clean so we just don’t use it. Having all the burners is neat to look at too, but admittedly we use maybe a few at once most. Can’t ever imagine using all 6 at once. I mean, I ain’t Gordon Ramsey.
