Best 36" Cooktop, BlueStar? Something better?
Comments (16)Just went through the Blustar "cooktop vs rangetop" research myself, just bought a 30" cook top, but not installed yet. The grates on the cooktop are exactly the same as on the rangetop, so you lo se nothing in cooking space (unlike other brands). Re wok cooking, you can remove the grate and that leaves a perfect bowl that fits the bottom of the wok (there is a video of this out on Youtube somewhere) Re dimensions: the cooktop is a bit deeper than most other cooktops - 22", so plan your countertops accordingly. It is also thicker and will take about a 9" deep cavity to hold, so you will lose a drawer below the cooktop (vs. 4" for other, lesser, cooktops). Good luck!...See MoreHappy Valentine's Day!

Comments (4)Woo Hoo! I know just how you feel - My Valentine's Day present was tile in my upstairs bathroom! Much better than any chocolate. If you're thinking about leaded glass and not planning to make your own, definitely check out Middlefield Glass on line. Their prices and qualityare both fabulous. (In fact, that's where most of the major American cabinet companies get their glass done before marking it up hugely and reselling it to you.)...See MoreCountertop/shelf support ideas?
Comments (1)Try Outwater Plastics (http://www.outwatercatalogs.com/home/index.cfm). There is a search button in the middle of the page, kinda hard to see at first glance. They carry all sorts of hardware that may work for your situation. I don't think you are looking for corbels but if you are, you can try www.FederalBrace.com Andy...See Moreplywood shelf supports question
Comments (6)Consider using Baltic birch (Russian Birch) 3/4" Multi-ply. It will not sag. You don't need to add thickness on the front or back- the 3/4" panel is plenty rigid. The finished edge actually looks cool since it is all solid hardwood veneers. Or you can cover the edge with solid wood, but there is no need to increase the 3/4" thickness- so you get more storage space. For the side supports, I would use the KV standards and nail them to the sides of your existing panels. They are strong enough for bookshelves. Installation is easy for a retrofit like you are doing. The shelves will be adjustable. Here is a link that might be useful: KV shelving standards...See MoreTexas_Gem
