Granite island 10ft LONG w/14"overhang...how many support post needed
Comments (5)"Question: will support post on each end of the 10ft overhang be enough or do i need another post in center??" No and no. You can't do it like that. You could have your fabricator cut slots into the bottom of the stone and fill the slots with stainless steel or composite rods set in a bed of epoxy or acrylic adhesive designed for rodding. 30" long at a minimum and spaced every 16" or so. Alternatively, you could run a 2" steel square tube between the three posts and set the stone on that. Painted flat black and set in 3" or so, it will be somewha inconspicuous. Check your door swings first, please....See MoreShould we put 9 ft. or 10 ft. ceilings in a new Craftsman build?
Comments (100)cpartist give excellent suggestions for how to deal with 10 foot tall kitchens, keeping the ambiance Craftsman and attractive. I will note I find 9 foot tall ceilings plenty fine for me, but go with feels comfortable to you. Although I do have a cathedral ceiling in the public part of the house.... (No, my house is not Craftsman). As someone else noted, you'll have to change your door heights and other aspects of your home to go with the increase in ceiling height - and that's not going to be cheap. Even at six foot one, I don't feel cramped in homes that have 8 foot ceilings - I was just in one (probably built in the 60s or 70s) this past Sunday (after months of not being to get out and visit folk very often at all). It was fine. But 9 doesn't affect pricing as much as 10 feet would. Please don't do without upper cabinets. You'll hurt resale, as not everyone is going to want to stop everything and remodel as soon as they move in. Even though I mostly have drawers, the lowest one is always a pain to access anyway.....See More20 inch soffit with 42 inch upper cabinets/10ft ceiling
Comments (18)"I am not going to tell you" are not words that are particularly useful in this forum. OPs deserve to know the reason for and the thinking behind the questions that are asked here. It's not clear to me what stage this build is at. If it's still under design, then comments about high ceilings make sense. If the house is already framed, then the ceiling heights are pretty much a given. It's also not clear to me that the OP has any affordability issues. By the way, Frank Lloyd Wright, arguably the greatest residential architect ever (leaking roofs notwithstanding), always used to design his houses with the kitchen having the highest ceiling. I think he believed that the kitchen would act as a chimney this way and draw cooking odors away from adjacent living and dining rooms. So there is nothing wrong per se with a high ceiling in a kitchen, particularly if it is higher than the surrounding spaces....See MoreCambria quartz quote $10,500 for 50 sq. ft
Comments (12)I appreciate all the responses. Waiting for the final readjusted price based on my change order of a different color and corrections to the final measurements. I discovered there are three levels of color choices in Cambria; Classic, Signature and Luxury. I stayed within the Signature selection so my price will be lower. Very happy with the color choice and the product. I expect the entire installation to cost less than $10,000 (we will know soon) and I'm excited for it to be done! EDIT: To answer some of your questions: Looks like Cambria doesn't allow their product to be sold by the slab. It's square feet only. If there's a big giant swoop of vein to be matched, say, in a waterfall countertop or a large backsplash above a double stove, it doesn't matter how many slabs they have to create to match those giant veins...you will only pay for the square feet used in your project. This is what I'm being told by my installer who is a franchise seller of Cambria. I want a pure white background with just a hint of very pale, wispy veining. As much as I love granite, I can't find a granite that is white enough, so I went with quartz. Plus, white quartz is nonporous and will not stain like white granite. Yes, it looks like geographical area affects price of fabrication/installation/labor. Maybe I'm not clear on what is included in the square feet price, other than the color and the unfinished product. I know for sure that my measurements are 57 square feet, 2cm thick with 4cm square edge. No cutouts for electric outlets, no need to match veins. I can't say for sure what my cost per square foot is yet. Will update here when I find out!...See More

last yearlast modified: last yearyou can split the top drawer when doing the wider size,as below.... you can set the drawers any way you like really . just more value to generally install " wider overall " dimension ...then pick more shallow ...4 layers of drawers vs 2or 3 bigger drawers etc. Lucky if kitchen can have great variety..... If smaller kitchen ? be discriminating about those few drawer stacks and get them perfect for needs. spend on drawer specs.. sizes of the drawers/ weight requirement/ glides/ etc...understand what you can do.

last yearThis has worked really well for us (I love it, as the main cook)
4 29" drawers on the left, top is misc tools, bottom three are skillets and small pans.
12" pullout for oils, vinegars, misc sauces
2 36" drawers in the center for larger pots and other things
12" pullout for spatula, tongs, whisks, ladels, etc
3 29" drawers for spices and various mixing bowls
I love that most everything I need to use while cooking is within easy reach.

last yearWe added a double trash on the end because this is the opposite end of the kitchen than our sink and other trash. Rest is split evenly, I think 30” drawers. This is 9.5’.
