Cabinets

Finished hanging all the wall cabinets today. Hanging the cabinets were a lot easier than I expect, probably one of easiest Ikea things to do. The time consuming part was cutting out a hole in one cabinet to fit the vent pipe. Also, once I hung all but one, the cabinet on top of the fridge wouldn't fit. I had 34 inches but the Ikea cabinet was 36 in. The next size they had was 30 in so I had to cut down 2in off the cabinet. Thanks to my new Craftsman jigsaw though, it was amazingly easy. On close inspection, you can see the finish is not perfect though. I couldnt install the doors on it though because taking 2 in off the doors would not be easy and the finish will be easily noticeable. So I've left that and the cabinet on top of the range without doors. Anyway, this is what the kitchen looks like now.
