ossify 1 Report post Posted February 11, 2010 11 Feb 2010 Assembled my dining table base, and fixed up the doors for my wall cabinets dining table base assembled, will put a big piece of black tempered glass on it when i have manpower. it's so heavy!! wall cabinets with doors assembled, all with blum soft closing, the one nearer to the dining area has glass shelves, the rest are wooden (oh yes, i haven't added door handles yet) opening the wall cabinet doors to see if it will hit the alpha baby fan (good thing my calculations were correct) now that all my cabinets are up, my kitchen can be made neater can stuff everything in the cabinets Hi ossify, Your pm inbox is full thus cannot send u the false ceiling contact.
