I have just about finished the dishwasher cabinet!!!<\/p>\n

What’s left are little finishing touches that require a trip to Home Depot. That is definitely going to be first thing tomorrow!<\/p>\n

\"I<\/a>

I put one of these bolts at the top and bottom of the dining room side; they seemed so perfect for securing the doors. They’re not. \ud83d\ude41 I’ll need to add a mechanism inside one of the doors to keep it from swinging and then the bolts should work.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Kitchen<\/a>

Kitchen side door.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"I<\/a>

I cut a piece of plywood to fill in the gap between the counter and the top of the door.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Getting<\/a>

Getting those screws in was a NIGHTMARE! The world is not made for people with stubby fingers.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"The<\/a>

The top looks horrible. \ud83d\ude42 I’m going to get some quarter round to make the edges along the countertop prettier. I think a bit more sanding and the eventual paint will make the rest of it look okay. I am however impressed with my jigsawing. \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n

Because of the angled corner on the kitchen side, I won’t be able to use one of those sliding bolts to secure the door. I’ll have to re-examine the options at Home Depot.<\/p>\n

The kitchen side definitely looks less polished than does the dining room side. The door jam isn’t quite as square, although I think I could remedy that by shifting the bottom hinge a tad which would shift the door to cover the slight gap. Considering how hard it was to get that hinge screwed in, I don’t have the strength to remove it and reposition it. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
