Can I have a Silgranit sink and an under the sink trash pullout?
Comments (4)Here is my Rev-a-Shelf trash pullout under my silgranit sink. I thought we had measured to perfection but the plastic waste basket was just a tad too tall and hit the sink. Rather than buying a different wastebasket , I just cut about 1/4 to a 1/2 inch off the top of the wastebasket. Fits like a champ now! My sink is the 1--3/4 Performa Medium. I put the pullout under the larger side. I have a garbage disposal under the smaller basin....See MoreCan i have a pan put under a water heater that is aleady installed?
Comments (1)" It is possible to have a pan installed now?" Yes,and you certainly should do it. " Also what about putting in a drain in the floor next to the heater? is that hard to do?" Simple to install and nessary....See MoreI'm done watching the sun in the courtyard -- have a semi-plan now
Comments (12)Xentar, yes I will definitely be doing some vertical gardening, in fact, at the northenmost end of the garden, right past the patio area, I'm going to put up 6 ft high trellises of beans and cucumbers to shade the patio, which is in full sun all day, which really makes it hard to enjoy. The sun comes from the South, so that tall trellis won't shade anything important. I'll have other trellises against the wall that gets all the afternoon sun, probably beans, since they do well with less direct sunlight. I can plant pole beans with bush beans at the bottom in 2 feet of space. That's a lot of beans! I'm also going to trellis tomatoes and squash to save space. I trellised tomatoes all the time in SC -- just put up a strip of hog wire and tied them right up. They did so well like that, and I was able to grow a lot of radishes in front of them. In the summer, I'll replace the cucumbers and beans with malabar spinach and lima beans, or I may grow sweet potatoes and trellis their vines to use the leaves too. I've seen people do that on YouTube. On the shady west side, I'm thinking of putting up those PVC growing towers for lettuce, if I can get someone to help me build them. I want to eventually plant berries on the sunny wall, but that's a future dream. Of course, none of this will be started until fall, because I have too much to do until then to get things ready. My courtyard is a disaster right now, and I don't have time to do anything about it, so I'll be torturing myself this summer trying to get it done....See MoreCan I mount microwave under cabinet and still have undercabinet light?
Comments (4)It's a "maybe" fit inside my 18" cabinet like that if I switched to 20" doors above (limited to IKEA sizing). You are right, practigal, that that looks better than hanging on the bottom. I'm still not clear even after reading a bunch of threads on whether a countertop microwave has enough venting space to be in a cabinet like that or inside a pantry cabinet. I need to ask my contractor if we are going to have an inspection problem....See MoreVirgil Carter Fine Art
