Nice job Del nice to see you making it easier for the man after you 👍

[@thetallcarpenter]

Hi Mark🖐Well, it's not always reciprocated, buy that's not going to stop me being considerate to others🤩Thanks for your comment 😎 Cheers Del

[@sergiofernandez3725]

It was a pleasure to see you work. Nice job. In the utility room with regards to the water pipes take the back of the cabinet out and put a 30mm by 30mm tiber on the uprights at the back and then trim the back panel down a few mm then use 4 or 6 mirror screws to attach the back panel back into place. The plumber will thank you for it and this can then become a maintenance hatch.

[@thetallcarpenter]

Hi Sergio🖐That's a great suggestion and similar to what I might do if the pipes ever needed inspecting/working on👍In this instance though, the pipes are below the base of the unit, so removing the carcase just made it easier during the plumbing installation👊Thanks for your comment and for watching 😎 Cheers Del

[@plumberdan5720]

Respect for thinking of the plumber and leaving that unit unfixed in the utility.

[@thetallcarpenter]

Well, not all trades think about making things easy for each other, but I like to make life easy for guys on the team if I can🤩Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del

[@disklamer]

Nice work 👊, this kitchen looks very tight, lovely how the trim and paneling give it a lot of character and style already. It’s so rare to get the plumbing fixed exactly where you need it, even with a kitchen planned in detail and a plumber doing his best somehow every so often one of the pipes comes in exactly at the joint of two cabinets to create the perfect nuisance. The creativity that ensues always makes me think, how the next person is going to react to the artistic constellation of s-bends and boreholes. Gj on considering.

[@thetallcarpenter]

Youre exactly right bud👊and I dont think I've ever fitted a kitchen that hasnt needed some sort of 'tweak' here or there😜Thanks for your great comment and for watching😎Cheers Del

Killed it!

[@thetallcarpenter]

Thanks bud👊

[@johnmackay7789]

Great video once again👌👌 It's a pity the manufacturer didn't make a dedicated sink unit with a stepped down back and a deep front rail, makes life a good bit easier when fitting the tap and supporting those sinks. Another tool for you to consider for future kitchen fitting is a pocket screw jig (unless you already do), so handy especially since the manufacturer uses this method.

[@thetallcarpenter]

You know what John🤔you must have been reading my mind a little, as I did think how cool pocket screw fixing is, and that I should buy myself a jig😎Thanks for watching and your great comment 🤩Cheers Del

[@johnmackay7789]

@@thetallcarpenter Its amazing what uses you find pocket screws for. Great to use instead of angle brackets in a lot of cases but really good for fixing end panels or haffits when forming openings for integrated appliances. Angle brackets can make a 600mm opening too tight.

[@thetallcarpenter]

@@johnmackay7789 Sod it John😮I'm gonna get one👊

[@johnmackay7789]

@@thetallcarpenter there's is quite a choice out there, I'm still using the original Kreg one from about 20 years ago which is fairly limited compared to the new fully adjustable ones. Also the panhead pocket screws are the best to use but you can just get away with countersink screws you have to be careful not to bust out the pocket hole. Cheers 👍

[@tracer1127]

Yes if you don’t plan ahead with the sinks that fit most of the unit boy would you have a fun day fitting the tap. I have fitted a few lately and like you say a dedicated unit with the supports and cut out’s would save a lot of faff. Some of those sinks are 25kg without any water and washing up.

[@glenwilkins8587]

Great work del, I will be starting my kitchen soon,but first I want to install some insulated plasterboard on the walls, what fixings do you recommend for kitchen units onto insulated plasterboard walls. Cheers Del 👍

[@thetallcarpenter]

Hi Glen🖐You might have caught me out with this question bud, as fixing wall units to plasterboard is something I always avoid purely due to the weight that these units can have in them. (plates/crockery etc). How thick is the insulation? If it was no more than 50mm I'd think about using M8x100 'Fischer' fixings so they will go into the masonry behind🤔

[@glenwilkins8587]

Thanks for getting back Del. It will probably be 50mm thick. I will look into the fixings, many thanks for your recommendations. When is your next kitchen video, keep up the great informative work. 👍

Oh adjustable base cabinet feet and wall cabinet brackets. The Americans are still using the 70s style screw and shim method. Cannot find proper units. Such a slow process installing kitchens over here. Love that your not bridge hanging cabinets. Roasted my apprentice for that. Onto the next video. Lol.

Hi Mark🖐Fortunately here, the dot and dabbers solid fill where the wall cabinet fixings are, so I can just use red plugs and 5x60 screws👍(I do knock the plug into the wall a bit so it's mostly in the masonary👊) Cheers

ive just started a kitchen today del. i notice on this video you have the hinges fitted already. assume you attach the doors this way. i always attach the hinges to the door and then fit to the cabinet. think ill have a try doing it your way see how it works out. also.. what are you using for your scribes? that looks like a good system

Still hate the colours. The more finished panels that go in the worse it looks. Too dark and sombre for my taste. Undercounter sinks. They are popular here as well. Everything old is new. I am watching you all rugged up as the Aussies say. Must be cooling down now. It has been high 30's here last few days. Humidity through the roof and fierce thunderstorms at night. Wasn't a good day for installing a big beam in place of a wall. But got it in with a lot of sweat and litres of water.

Hi Dave🖐Great to hear your grafting hard mate, and our sweltering hot summer seems like a distant memory now, as the temperature is below freezing now 🥶 The funny thing is about trendy kitchen colours, is that in 15 years time we'll be saying, 'do you remember when everyone went for those awful dark blue kitchens😆Thanks for your comment bud 😎 Cheers
