First real cabinet done test fit.

#1

Well as some of you know I was dumb enough to say to my wife "yes we can move the kitchen from the front of the house to the rear". 

I have been learning a lot doing this.  

We had a 12 x14 room that had a hot tub in it.  I took the hot tub out closed in the floor.  Had to take the ship lap off the walls and redo them with sheet rock.  I also ran some new plumbing and electrical outlets.  This room is turning into a coffee bar sitting area off our master bed room.

I figured this would be a good place to start, because it is not the main kitchen.  Above this cabinet will be bookshelves to the ceiling the other side will be the same a cabinet and both shelves above it.  IMG-6349.jpg

The cabinet is 15 inches deep 31 inches high and 33 1/2 inches wide with 4 drawers.   The top is made of soft maple glued up.  IMG-6352.jpgIMG-6358.jpgIMG-6355.jpg

I had this cover made to go over the air vent, it covers the vent and has a 3 inch port coming out each side.  This will allow me to move the air flow from straight up, to out the front of the toe kick.  I am waiting on the air diffusers before I finish the install.

Thanks again for all the help.
