Hey guys...I started early today. A former student called me on my way home yesterday asking about how to hang cabinets. Said he was trying, but, it's not as easy and straightforward as he thought it would be. "No SH!T". Well in the end he asked me if I would be able to come "help" him. I told him, it just so happened that I had some time tomorrow (today). We stopped there to look at the situation on the way home. I told him we'd be over in the morning to get going. I thought it should take most of the day. He said he had to work, but if I could/would come over he'd pay me. He said he talked to someone who quoted him $1k to hang them....."Naw, I'm thinking less than half that."

So today my help (Rosie) and I loaded the tools up and headed over to hang cabinets. Old house, crappy remodel job/add on from years ago didn't help much, but by noon we had all but one of the uppers in. Walls not plumb or square, so that presented a few issues....but nothing I hadn't seen before,just took a little longer than normal. After lunch, went back and got the base cabinets installed. He came home about the time we were finishing up and I made him decide how to fix the one problem we ran across with the upper cabinets and I helped him with the pattern for the top.

To fix the problem with the upper cabinet we encountered, I'll have to make a spacer block, stain and finish it before I can finish up that one installation.

Tomorrow, I work for Rosie. The county is having her move her office over to a different building and she needs some cabinetry moved/rearranged, so will start on that. Can't complete that job, as electricians need to come in and move some outlets/switches....looks to be another busy day.
