Installing pantry cabinets in an alcove in my kitchen.
I still need to add trim to the top of the face frame, install doors and slides and shelves, and decide on/apply a finish. Wife is out of town and I lack authority to make the finish decision, said authority having not been delegated to me :-(
Still wavering between paint (white? blue?) and stain (honey-toned).
It was a right b!t*h to get the three carcasses in place and level, as the space was very tight, the subfloor not flat, and the cabinets not designed with separate bases for leveling. The carcasses are 3/4” ply and very heavy. There’s a bunch of shims under there. The carcasses are screwed to each other and to the header, and now are level and rock-solid. The wall on the right is very not-straight, being over 1” off vertical from bottom to top. I cut the face frame at the necessary angle and will eventually caulk the remaining gap. The slight mis-matches between some pieces of the face frame are irritating but I can sand them down and I think after stain or paint, I won’t notice them.
