Davo, sure he's not just sleeping?

we poked him with a big stick just to make sure (and dislodge him from his purch) the one in the loft was picked clean just a complete skeleton.

Jdub - nice to see the space it created - was the trend of making lots of small rooms in a house real estate agents continuing a myth - or did people really want seperate loung, living, dining, and a kitchen?
Here's hoping that all those brand new federation style places built in the 90's and beyo0nd get a serious renovation sometime in the future as well - same fate as yellow benchtops and fake wood wrap kitchen cupboards got....
Wow Jdub, looks great, really makes to whole place look different!
I found myself a cabinet maker who works for a kitchen company and he is going to help me out and even supply some bulkheads and filler pieces. He's coming on Saturday to start installing to wall cabinets :D
and the best part is he said he doesnt even need to be paid, he would just like to give me a hand with it
His name wouldn't be Toddles would it?;) :D.Quote:

What is really interesting is how some houses probably alternate between one configuration and another.Quote:

So, the house started its life with a sliding door to the bathroom (recently confirmed on plans), then the previous owners replaced with a hinged door, and now we're thinking of putting it back.

We cut out 100mm of gyprock, inserted noggins, regyprocked, flushed and then attached the cabinets. The base cabinets we didnt bother with noggins as they are on legs anyway, but used plasterboard anchors (plastic spiral things)as well as screws.
Guess the project wouldnt be complete without the sparky installing the wrong sized power points for the oven and cooktop so waiting for him to come back and fix it
