Kitchen Developments

We only have one corner and it's not square.  In fact, it's not even close to square.

By the time you travel the distance over the entire wall, it's out by 2 inches.

Lots of planning is required before hanging any cabinets.  Chalk lines around the entire kitchen and, while you cannot see them here, the wall is covered in pencil drawings that show where the cabinets go.

The giant shims required to make the wall square.  The top rail for hanging the wall cabinets is in place, attached firmly to the wall studs.

The first cabinets go on the walls.

Not to be left out of the fun, Frodo has to get into the cabinet.  She had a bit of a tumble getting back out again. 

The base cabinets are in their places, just not attached to the walls yet until we figure out the dishwasher placement and drain pipe issues.

The wall oven finally comes out of its cardboard box after 5 years of waiting.  
The stack of boxes has shrunk considerably since we started.
