My kitchen is now operational.  7 weeks.  My wife and I did all of the work except for electrical routing/installation, flooring installation, and granite counter top installation.  If you are an immigrant from the WOOD forum you know this kitchen project has had a few birthdays.

 

Cabinet construction is cherry wood with birch pre-finished ply.  3/4" matl for the sides, top, and bottom.  1/2" matl for the backs.  Finish schedule is one coat BLO, one coat garnet shellac 1-1/2 lb cut, and three coats Sherwin-Williams Sher-wood Kem Aqua clear finish medium rubbed.  Full extension soft close drawer slides.

 

Punch list:

Complete base board installation

Install crown molding

That is one gorgeous build! Love all of the storage.

 

My wife would never allow me to photograph our cupboards with the doors open 

that is one sweet kitchen Dan...

KUDOS..

 

Holy cow Dan, that it gorgeous! The peninsula island looks similar to the buffet in one of the issues of Woodsmith and featured as one of their project builds on Woodsmith Shop. It is outstanding as is everything else.

The built-in wall pantry is a great idea too. Thanks for taking time to share this project!

 Beautiful job and well thought out. I also like the pantry, great idea.

Thanks everyone for looking and your kind words of encouragement.

Danl I hope you didn't put your wife in shock by getting off your injuries and finishing this project... It does look like it took both of you an hour or two. Hats off to both of you....... Now cook something and get it all messed up....

WOW...beautiful and great ideas (wall storage, half legs on island and everything)...I really like the doors design...may have to show it to my daughter (kitchen re-do).

 

And nothing's classier than dovetails for the garbage bin...
