I build alot of cabinets etc... I like them ornate and simple depending on the house. I Really like your rounded lower cabinet doors. Nice touch!

Thanks alot mark....Sounds silly, but i did actually buy trimming to go round the edges of the cab doors but when it was all screwed and glued i thought it would look nice without them...

Niko, despite the SPAM, I had thought about your setup (well, the Real jersey came to mind this week :P ). You still around? Any updates? :D

Hey BS...

LOL..good old spam..you either love it or hate it. I like it grilled.....two of my old threads brought up within a week...he he he he

Well, my friend, to fill you in a little...

The reef build itself was a total success and i think all the prior planning and ground work that i did was the contributing factor to everything working exactly as i had planned and imagined it would do..

So, updates? Well, the main couple of updates are that is it actually now been sold as i have a pending move to the US at the end of this year. I am moving to North Carolina from England to be with my partner. Selling the reef hurt me bad as i had put a lot of effort into it, and also for the ammount of contribution work from other members here who helped me get through the project. But, selling is part of the bigger picture. That was the first thing to be sold, and now the last thing has been sold, my house. So, all done and dusted and renting a house now while myself and my partner work through all the paper work for immagration.

Its funny when i look back...If i had known now, what i did then, i would not of gone to all trouble of getting it built, i would simply of gone to a LFS and brought it all pre-made and setup....but, the learning experience has done me good...
