When I finished out...I can understand feeling torn. When I finished out my garage, I had a fairly firm timeline to get it done, 2 months. I had two months off from work for my sabbatical. I was afraid if I didn't get it done by then it may never happen. As such, I outsorced some things I wanted to do but knew I couldn't get done by myself in that timeframe. Part of it also was I'm no longer young. The good news is that it got done on time and I've been enjoying it ever since.

I saved the old cabinets, put the sink cabinet on the patio and ran a garden hose to the faucet and PVC off the sink drain to the gully. It worked but was a PITA. BTW, it was a good thing I moved the plumbing, when we opened the wall to move it we found the main house drain line was missing about a foot of its top. From looking at it it had been that way from the time the house was built back in the '70s. There was no indication of an overflow in all that time which was also amazing.<br /><br />Bottom line: I'm glad I built the cabinets but I'm not sure I would do it again if I couldn't do it in stages<br /><br />Good luck,<br /><br />ken.I'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2976499952885642848.post-85068334517651096292017-02-25T06:08:29.366-08:002017-02-25T06:08:29.366-08:00I'm with you Andy.

It seemed to take forever as it was. Maybe next time, if I'm retired then. But probably not!jefskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07371137053872693861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2976499952885642848.post-67263831634011442222017-02-25T01:23:02.261-08:002017-02-25T01:23:02.261-08:00Being without the kitchen is more of a hindrance t...Being without the kitchen is more of a hindrance then I anticipated it being. Ouch on the rough in work. That is one problem I didn't have - If I had moved anything (electrical/plumbing) I would have had the bring it up code issues also.Ralph Boumenothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10606484453109932074noreply@blogger.com
