O boy another job a pro will have to go out and fix cause some one

shouldn't do this is one of them. Iam a plumber and I would phone a
experienced carpenter to do this. Same as I would phone a book keeper
to keep books, it is just that easy.


Oh, come on. This desk jockey has made and hung lots of cabinets. Never
had to
call a pro, yet. It ain't rocket science. Once you know floors aren't
level
and walls aren't straight, a handful of tricks and techniques will do the
job as
well as any pro.

I'm not dis'en the pros. Doing a good job fast enough to make a profit is
it's
own trick. I just have to do a good job fast enough to keep my wife
happy.

Agree. I've hung cabinets and redo kitchens before and no big deal. Had the
pros do another kitchen last time and had to correct their mistakes. The
difference between the pros and me is that they do it fast and I take my
time to make sure its done right.
