@RoryAlsop You could handle parts of it, and hire out other parts. Everybody loves demo, so you'll definitely want to handle that yourself.

Welcome to Project Update Thursday
Chris Cudmore
It's been a while since I've made it on a Thursday.
Current State of affairs:
Farted around for 4 wks waiting for the counter top.
BMitch
That was a huge delay for me too.
Chris Cudmore
Supplier shipped wrong granite first, then one flawed sheet. Then arguing with fabricator.
BMitch
Mine was just a multi-week delay to get someone out for measuring.
Chris Cudmore
7:04 PM
Did the under-mount lighting myself.
BMitch
is that why all the wires are hanging out? :D
Chris Cudmore
Still need to select backsplash tiles. This will likely result in divorce.
BMitch
what's the plan for over the range, have a large hood picked out?
Chris Cudmore
Yeah, curved glass. It almost looks like it came with the ceiling light.
So backsplash to the ceiling, then the fume hood
BMitch
Pretty. Did you leave a path behind/under the cabinets for dishwasher plumbing to the sink?
Chris Cudmore
7:07 PM
Plumbing has been installed since those pics. It's done.
BMitch
Looks awesome.
Chris Cudmore
Stainless steel dishwasher. There was copper right under the floor, so supply was tapped into that.
Drain went through the corner cabinet.
But other than painting, moulding, and some minor electrical, I can't claim any DIY for that
BMitch
Is there a lazy susan in there you could run under/around?
Chris Cudmore
Yeah, it's behind the lazy susan, nicely clamped right into the corner.
Don't even notice it.
BMitch
Yeah, pretty hard to see anything behind those.
Chris Cudmore
7:11 PM
But I really should have had the cabinet installers leave a path.
... and a string in that path as well would be helpful.
BMitch
It's probably a lot easier to fish the drain behind the lazy susan than under/behind the cabinet.
your life will be much easier if you ever need to replace/repair the dishwasher.
Chris Cudmore
That's a really good point.
back in ten minutes.
Chris Cudmore
7:28 PM
I'm back, and no one else is here.
BMitch
Nope, guess we're all done with PUT for today because I have nothing.
Your kitchen is looking awesome, great update.
Thanks for joining us for this week's PUT

Usually I add it about 2 hours late when people say "hey, where's the event"
something's wrong, I'm thinking ahead.
