hi Tampinechris, Yes the low cabinet is inclusive in my quote. The unit price is $700 but that is before the lump sum discount.

as to your question of whether to cut the corner of the box up, my personal opinion is i rather not. cos if you cut it, it'll have more contour and probably attract more attention to it. Actually in Fengshui, white and grey is interchangeable if I am not wrong. Yellow and brown also interchangeable as both represents earth colour. Maybe can check with your FSM on the alternative colours. Like my MBR, FSM says best colour is yellow but if I dun like yellow I can replace with brown.

wahhh .. did the air con people run thru with you how they going to run the pipe before they start work?

electrical works will start first. However, before you can confirm your electrical points, it is good to take your carpentry works into consideration as some of your carpentry works may incorporate electrical points. e.g. I need to plan my kitchen layout first before I know where I want my power points.

he didn't come. I didn't call him to come either. Cos Jason kept saying he'll meet me first afterwhich Ah Wei will call me later..

yah loh i kiasu, my last flat, we short of storage... so this time i'm gonna make sure i got enough!! hahaha Initially, I wanted to have a L door for that corner so that i can access the corner, however i just realise the tall unit beside the oven is suppose to house my row of 5 drawers inside... so it is not feasible for L shape door, as such I will have to live with a difficult to access deep corner. Howeer Jason assured me that it won't be too deep cos I got a protruding column at that corner which **** need to wrap up. PROGRESS UPDATES Electrician should be finishing the electrical today, latest by tomorrow. Tomorrow, the L boxes and boxing up works will start. Air con guy will come in these 2 days to run the pipe first. After the ceiling works complete, painting will start. Met Jason at 4pm.. (suppose to be at 3.. but when i called at 3.30 he's at toh yi - growler! I think your place). He told me his computer repaired liao and he can use his computer to draw for me. I wonder how his computer drawings will look like. I'll meet him again on Wednesday. Our carpentry discussion was fast cos I've done my own doodling and the whole thing ends in an hour. I just realised I forgot to plan how I want the internal of my wardrobes to be lor!!! sigh.. I asked Jason to propose for me..

aiyoh ur purchase process sounds frustrating. Heng ahh both my buying and selling was handled by the same agent and he was actually my seller's agent, he serve us absolutely well. Very fortunate to have met him. If you get ur keys during lunar ghost month how??

wahh so nice of uncle to replace it FOC even though it is not his fault.

aubrey I would love to be there. early june should be fine

hey Reiki thanks for the pics!! I like the idea of the hidden powerpoints! will see if the carpenter can do that. Thanks for highlighting the issue of study table. Both boys will be sharing a room. As you can see, I only put in a section with leg room as study space. This is becos I have another room that will be converted to a proper study cum computer room in a year's time. Currently the 3rd bedroom will be temporary used by my sis. She'll be shifting out end of next year. The younger boy is only 18months now. I've got a set of Ikea table and chair to let the younger boy use first. I've seen ur T-blog and love how your place is being done up!! I especially love your kitchen. Will take your design as reference when I can do up my study room

ohh i thought these are pretty standard. ok ok. Share share more details on your blog so that we can learn.

no he didn't come my place, he called me. orhhhh so he "yue wang" me!! He is the one that bijia his own bak chang lobang not me lah. hahahhaha Hey growler, show us pictures of ur carpentry leh. update in your blog, we'll hop over to see.

hey fannie, when are u installing ur curtain tracks?? Jimmy Textile called me wanted to come next week, but I postponed to 2nd week of june. Cos i worried that if i install it too early, by the time HO, the curtain tracks will be full of dust. Should the track be up before false ceiling goes up? or is it ok to do it after?

Kitchen doodle I kiasu... scared not enough storage, so mainly full height cabinets :x

ehhh dun wan dun wan!! tell him ivy feels very guilty liao..

aiyah WENDY!!!!!!!!! I kanna uncle's virus lah!! I suddenly remember I forgot to go up yesterday evening............ uncle is bad influence!! I am re-thinking about the pull out tray, cos the keyboard is pretty wide that means the pull out tray needs to be long and it equates to less storage.. These 2 boys got alot of books and toys, all handed down by cousins.. cos I am concern with storage. Also, he maybe using the keyboard for at most 2 years after which if his interest continues, he'll need to be upgraded to a piano.. So I may want to do away with the tray but just put the keyboard on top of the cabinet instead and leave some space below as leg room. When not in use, I can shift the keyboard to the side and he can then make use of the same space as study table. I've yet done any measurement, I will note that the depth cannot be too deep for shortie like me. The forunate thing is their room windows are sliding windows, so I need not reach out to close them. With your open bookshelves, got problems with dust??

aiyoh people, i kanna "scolded" by Jason liao. He say he die liao cos now everybody is asking from him Ba Chang, including the one at Toh Yi. Who is that??? and who else asking for Ba chang?? He ask me why i go and advertise So hor I gave up 2 of my "ba chang" I say ok lor, my fault, I'll just take 1 and whoever ask for ba chang u also give 1 lor. like that not so siong. hahhahah good things must share mah hor??!! He ahhh drama lah, pretend to scold me but was laughing away at the other end of the phone the whole time. Those who not yet ask, plss dun ask liao if not he'll bash my head with ba chang on monday when he sees me. hahhaha

Hi Sohck don't be despair, that's what we all went through when we were all sourcing quote from him. Sometimes he underestimate the time he needs to spend at certain appointments and that's why those appointments downstream gets affected. This initial meet ups are a good testing ground on your acceptance level to uncle's working style. If you are already feeling frustrated at this point, I guess, Uncle may not be the right working partner for you. Somehow, if you read through some of Ah Soon's current customers' thread, you'll realise, we all have very high tolerance level for uncle. I don't think anybody can explain why, it's just that X factor (and i am not talking about looks ok, those who met uncle before will know hahahah) that uncle have, coupled with his sincerity that make us able to accomodate his working pattern while he accomodate our puny budget for our big dreams.

hey ur MBR air con is above your TV? your purple laminate looks special. which brand is it from?

nice!

ohh ok i use to stay in 705 and now my grandma is still staying at 705. That estate is a pretty nice estate, quiet

wahhh BD and Ashes, you guys are really so kind. Gaku, i think it is better to convey ur carpentry requirement direct to the carpenter. Jason is famous for adding in things or doing things according to his dreams sometimes, but of course it is out of good heart. Then again it may not be something that the customers want. So if u can spare the time do walk thru with the carpenter.

Yah man I agree on the dust part. hmmm maybe I ask whether can give me clear glass door. Cos if it is hidden it will not entice them to pick up the books Ohhh yah nearly forgotten about that!! Thanks for the reminder.

low cabinet for boys' room Not sure whether the actual width of room will be sufficient to accomodate the above layout of the cabinet... Initally it was just all plain casement cabinets all for toys. After that I thought it will be good if some books are within easy reach of the kids. Then yesterday evening, Yamaha called to advice us to get a keyboard for the boy to practice at home... so now needs to give up some storage area to do a build in tray to hold his keyboard. He can then also use the space above the keyboard as study table since now got leg room.. Hope this will work

so far declan have never tried climbing on to the TV console at our jurong place. so i guess it will be ok. Use thicker glass lor. I'll get ah wei's no. from u by next week if he dun call me. Must give jason some respect, cos if i go direct to ah wei next time jason dun friend me liao. hahahah Jason is "bribing" me with his home make "Bak chang" on monday. Wanted to meet on sunday but he says he wanna make "bak chang" at home. To change appointment to monday, I get 3 jason brand bak chang. Ehhh this company good leh, good discount, good freebies, good food somemore!!! hahahaha
