First Cabinets

Butcher block is temporary, and cut over sized.  When done the edges will line up.  But these are the first cabinets installed in the kitchen.  After this I do the laundry room and the half bath cabinets.  May need to install the tile before doing the half bath, we'll see.
These needed and extra high base to clear the HVAC intake.  I have the old grille there temporarily just to over the hole.  I'll get a better one later after the tile is in and I can do the kick panel covers.

Craigslist Find

I'm still using a lot of old Ikea Expedit stuff for storage.  It works, and is flexible, but not fancy.  Been on the lookout for something better.  Ran across this on CL for only $300, and got them to deliver. Right now it's just staged in the open area of the basement.  I should be able to finish the framing and drywall in the old theater, and I'll move these in there.

Basement Bathroom Progress

 Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area.  The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped.  This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.

Kitchen Progress

 Backsplash tile almost done, just need to install the outlets and faceplates.
