My initial idea has ended up working out just fine, only I couldn&#8217;t centre the dishwasher on the counter because of hose length.<\/p>\n<p>I thought to secure the dishwasher with angle brackets and then slide it in between them, then realised that the front needed to be secured, too! The obvious answer to that was to mount the brackets to pieces of wood into which I would screw a frontal piece when the dishwasher was in. Great, there would go a few hours while I ripped plywood into suitable lengths. First, though, I went through my own scrap pile to see if I might have something better than plywood and lo and behold, I had the perfect thing, salvaged from the front of the dinette seats!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s definitely time for pictures. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5490\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/travelswithmiranda.uskeba.ca\/yet-another-i-changed-my-mind-about-the-dishwasher-post\/cimg0001-38\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5490\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5490\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5490\" src=\"http:\/\/travelswithmiranda.uskeba.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/CIMG000113-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"I had two of these long pieces that were the *exact* width of the angle brackets!!!
