Which jacks are those? Looks like what I am looking for. Thanks

Guard,

I bought 2 of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002P2YTIA/ref=sr_ph_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1470163512&sr=sr-1&keywords=BAL+23225+Set+of+2+%22C%22+Jacks+with+Handle+-+25.
I also bought 2 of these: https://www.amazon.com/BAL-23200-Foot-Pads-Jacks/dp/B004OI21MY/ref=pd_bxgy_263_img_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=J8AVSGGRK4HBZNYV8XAN.

Made so more progress on the counter this weekend.

Also scored some plan white 15x30 cabinet doors from Ikea for $2 a piece.

Made some more progress on the cabinet today.

Yes I know there is a gap between the doors. I guess that's what you get when you buy $2 doors from ikea... 15x30 is not actually 15x30. They are actually 14 9/16 x 29 9/16. I have a plan to fix the gap so I will see if it will work out.

You should be able to screw and glue a mullion to your frames to fill in the space PaulzOx or you could attach a false mullion behind one door in each opening so it appears to be a mullion. Nice build by the way.

Funegineer, thanks for the ideas. I will play around with them and see how it turns out. I like the idea of a fake mullion so I can maintain having a wider opening. I am learning a lot doing this build.

If the doors are smooth you can also use 3M VHB tape to attach the mullions. CV62F tape is what we have had the best results with. If you put ND magnets in each one the doors would also stay closed.

ID10T,

First I have to say I like your screen name, I use it at least once a week "you need to fill out your ID10T form and route it".

second, my doors are smooth and really like the idea of using double sided tape to ad a false mullion. Thanks for the idea.

Anyone have any ideas or info on a fold down sink that's is not expensive?

Thanks, The name goes back to my early tech years and onsite support. Dealing with ID10T errors is still a common thing unfortunately. I'm always surprised when I can the screen name on a forum.

The best place to get the VHB Tape is your local Auto Body Shop Fastener Wholesaler. Yes they really exist and if you like fasteners you wont want to leave. I never knew there were so many ways to attach things made out of plastic in one place. I never knew that many fasteners could get me exited. The things I have planned now. Well maybe that's why I'm an ID10T.

What do you mean by Folding Sink?

I mean that the faucet portion will fold down in to the sink so you can cover it. like the sinks in a pop up trailer.

I figured out the cabinet door gap thanks to ideas from fellow forum members.

I made false face trim pieces. The trim pieces that are on the non hinge side hang over about 1/4 inch each so the fill the gap that was in between.















I even beveled the edges of each trim piece to give it a fanshie smanchie look. I had to use my Dremel router attachment clamped down vertically.







I am very happy with how it turned out, especially because I have never built cabinets before.

Very nice! Great idea on the trim.

[McDave]

Very Nice!
I had a set of cabinets once that had a strip attached to the back of one door that filled the gap and appeared to be the vertical between the doors, so you would think there was four holes, not two. It was always in the way and you had to remember to shut that door first. Your solution looks great. Well done.

Don and McDave,

Thank you, I can't take all the credit though. As McDave described above having the false vertical behind the doors, I just decided to put it in the front.

With all the amazing builds on here like both of yours. I get great ideas from.
