    I had the same issue...my countertop/cabinets are original site built units that I didn't want to tear out when I did the remodel...the counter is slightly smaller than standard...so installing a "large" sink was a real be-otch...I was fighting for every 1/8"! The back of the sink is against the backsplash...and I had to bevel the inside edge of the sink cutout hole just to get it to sit down in flush! Oh, and then shave some of the framing down a bit on the front of the lower cabinets! :headbang:

    Ya same here I had literally enough room to tape the bracket onto the end of a 14" extension then play blind man to get them in the side tracks.... I was about ready to explode for a while there but it's in. HOPEFULLY I never have to take this sink out we are into it about $400 with sink and plumbing supplies. :headbang: But I guess that's cheap by the prices we saw at the stores so I'm not to annoyed about it:rofl: :lol:

    Had a nice end to the week last week.....early morning calm quiet pond along the highway with two swans. Beautiful! :yes:

    Then just about got ran over by two sand hill cranes....:picard:

    After that, had to deal with two fawns that had some sort of vendetta with the traffic on the highway!

    Same to be said for one little "foo foo" dog that had pretty much stopped traffic dead, except for some jack azz with Ill plates in a little town of Iron River Mi. Just kept zig-zagging across all four lanes of 55 mph traffic! (He is safe)

    Spent the early morning hours in the workshop of the garage (while others slept) and looked out the window and saw 4 baby racoons ambling through the back yard...probably wishing it was cooler and that they had a little bug dope!

    Me and my buddy had the forge set up for a few hours today. I leaned over to look at something he was working on and put my hand on the anvil on a hot piece of tool steel that I just forged in to a bit a few minutes earlier. Got a big ol pus pocket now. It'll probably hurt more when it pops.:headbang:

    I'll try to get a few pictures up later on. Still quite a few around here that don't have power, the aunt & uncle are using my generator as soon a I found out they were without power. I got to use my chainsaws for quite a bit this morning, funny who know that you have chainsaws....:emb:... Will be quite a few insurance claims on this one. I've got shingle damage, my stove cap got removed (the bottom portion is still attached), and got a few limbs down... But I'm pretty lucky... Thanks for the concern, friend...:handshake:

    Trap set for young raccoons, they have still been visiting though we did ammonia splashes and took down the humming bird feeders. Hopefully one or both will be gone in the morning, going to the pound 20 miles away.
    x2, same here.
