Kitchen cabinet help??

[Lignum]

then why is everyone attacking me

Maybe because of remarks like

or perhaps you weekend warriors can offer notsohandy the same deal,it sounds like the warriors out there would love to show notsohandy how to use the triton and assorted gmc tools but then again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nobody likes a smart a$$. Its the weekend warriors and hobbiests that make up the bulk of the forum, and with quotes like that you wonder why members have a dig at you:confused:

i am not quite sure what you mean ,by your quote does that mean that you will show notsoahndy how to do the job or are you not capable of helping notsohandy with his problem

my offer still stands

Whats the extrodinary skill involved to cut a flat panel and stick it together. In the wonderfull world of wood those who cut up panels are no where near as talented as those who hand make furniture, and alot of those do it entirely by hand with minimal of machines.

and i agree with you completly ,all i am saying is there are people out there that look at a project and think that it can,t be that hard to do ,but then when they are into it so far that they then realise that they are out of their depth they probably wished that someone had said to them "be afraid be verry verry afraid" because your no doubt living standards and relationship is riding on you knowledge or for that matter lack of experience/knowledger

Come on guys, give it a rest. There are people in Iraq who send their kid down to the corner store to get milk and end up childless. There's a little girl on the northern beaches of sydney who loses a body part to a passing motorist every time she steps outside her front door. If you want to get upset do it over something that means something.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Jeeeeezz!!!!!

I love this forum!

So informative...no not quite, how about so b!tchy.

So that makes me an informed b!tch!

I like it

If it was me with the kitchen i would not try to cut up sheets of melamine with i rip saw...mainly because i am scared of the buggers, those saws if they jam can become a weapon. So from my point of veiw a flat pack at cost price sounds great...can you deliver to Townsville!

I might be calling you in the future

Thanks everyone for your advice.
The Kitchen I'm building is based on an ultra modern design that I've drawn up at home. I went to my local timberyard and Bought 12 sheets of 16mm 1200 x 2400 Moisture resistant malemine. Used my trusty gmc circular saw with laser sight to cut the panels.
So far Ive made 3 cabinets and assembled them.
One cabinet was 2mm out of square across the top but other than that Its coming together great.

I'll post up some pics once its all finished..

Thanks again everyone..

Well then, it's good to see that you are going to have a shot at it.

If anything goes wrong, just post a question here. Who knows, you just might get another 4 pages of replies!

Sounds like you are doing a great job, and with a hand-held GMC saw at that.

[martrix]

wow... first ....then ... and then ..and still ....but, now all seems to be good

sounds like youve got it under control, how about some progress pics to show everyone how your travelling, I would be interested as I will be doing a kitchen using me trusty 'ole Triton

great thread, it's like 'Womans Day' for men....no offence

One of the great joys of installing kitchen cabinets is that the 2mm becomes 10mm when you put it on a wall that's out of square. I couldn't find a straight line anywhere in my kitchen. I don't envy Tom, doing it for a living for paying customers.

Thanks for the reddie Stuart.
I don't mind having to sift through disparate views to get the info I need; it's what makes the forum so good.
I'm building a kitchen at the moment and I appreciate the contributions that Tom has made to all the threads I've read. He does this sort of thing for a living and his advice (you may not agree with it sometimes) is invaluable for people like me.

And its goodnight from him, and good night from me.
