One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

Now that the Pantry is finished and being loaded up with food, we set today to start work on the island. I have Carter from Anderson Sheet Metal coming back on Friday to help me install the downdraft fan. That cabinet, which has the gas cook top on it, will be the anchor for the island location.

So we broke out all the island cabinets and hauled them into the kitchen and got them in place.

Can you see a problem in the picture above. No, it's not the model.

The problem is that the end of the island is not flush. We are missing a cabinet. The other problem that is less apparent in the photo is the the thinner cabinets on the north side of the island are the wrong size. They are supposed to be 36 inches wide. The ones we unpacked are 30 inches wide. 

So we are another six weeks out waiting for the revised cabinets plus the one that we are missing. That puts us into July before we can get the counter top people in here.

Washing dishes in the bathroom is getting old.
