Thanks, Bill. $35 a drawer isn't bad. I'm only thinking about lengthening two of them. FWC is still using the plastic slide. I would have to install boards in the cabinet for slides like yours so will likely stick with the current set up.
Like the idea of a fold down step. My wife is 5'2" and can not reach the window over fridge. May think about a folding step on the cabinet under the fridge. WTW keeps making more work for me.ntsqd said:There is some precedent for a downward opening door. It is hard to see in this pic, but the lowest door does open down. With my wife being 5'0" I've pondered making it more robust so that she can use it as an elevated standing platform.
Just looked at some of your pictures the slides look the same and yes they are heavy. I never liked the top slide FWC used and the extra weight is not that much. I am using the new slam latches from FWC so everything will match.Taku said:Bill, those look like the same drawer slides I used. They are heavy, but the positive closure and durability are very nice. Hope they work well for you.
The counters and table top are from FWC. Just a laminate with a round edge trim. The trim is soft vinyl T-molding that just pushes into a saw slot in the side of the tops. I am not a wood worker and it was probably cheaper for me to buy made right than try to put together myself. If you are a wood worker I am sure you could save $50.00 but not much more.Captm said:Hi Bill,
Glad to see it coming along nicely as well as looking great.
What's the trim your using on the counter and table tops?
Cheers
