cabinets day 2
These installers are terrific. They finished quickly and there’s a lot of pride in their work evident. Today they placed the trim on the cabinets, finished attaching all the doors, and applied the laminate countertops. Other than fine-tuning (a couple pull-out drawers are missing) and finishing (which will be done by the painters), the cabinet installation is complete. And it looks great too, I’m very happy.
We chose laminate countertops as a way to conserve money while leaving the upgrade path open for the future. Sure I’d like a solid-surface countertop, but sacrificing cabinetry to get it didn’t make sense. This way I can go back and upgrade later, but the cabinets are not going to have to be chnged a bit.

Linear i have to admit, this looks really awesome! I love the total look of the house, the abundance of wood everywhere!
I have been following this log for some time now and it is very nice to see you document the build so thouroughly. I think in 10 years time when you check this again you will have a lot of the feelings back you are having now.
I was wondering if you are whether you are gonna do a lot yourself still on the house or will you just move in when it is ready?
Best regards and a lot of more fun with the house!
