[quote=jeeman]Waiting Hawk,

Impressive work on your house! Is that your residence, or an investment property? I’d guess residence because nobody would put granite/travertine in an investment.

I think you dissuaded me on the Ikea cabs. Not because they don’t look nice…they do, and nobody could tell on the boxes. But because of all the work that needs to be put into it. If I evaluate my time as money, Ikea could come out to the same price as some mid-range customs.

The whole sink talk is greek to me, as you saw me say, I’m not too handy with that kind of stuff, but I will bookmark this conversation and make sure I have the same discussion with my friends who will install.

Thanks.[/quote]
No problem. Yes its the primary our cabin had the standard done on it without granite etc.. The gauge refers to the thickness of the steel in the sink. If you get a cheap 20 gauge and drop a cup you may harm it for life and you dont want a damaged undermount. Pain to remove and reinstall. The lower the gauge the thicker. Dont worry about being handy. If you can afford a mil plus home I am sure your other trade skills will make up for it 😉

Hi Jee. I put the IKEA cabinets in my but my house is not as exclusive as yours so its fits my place and budget (video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-ENXPKkhCc).
I saw your place on jimtherealtors youtube channel and if I was you I would get multiple bids for custom cabinets made to fit your place and needs. You can get them done inexpensivly now as most people are out of work in that field. IKEA really onlly has 2 decent styles to choose from. The medium brown and the dark brown. The rest are a retro/weird Europian look imo. My neighbor had his custom made to fit his house and he stained them himself. This may be an option also for you as you didnt appear to be 80 years old in the video (my neighbor was 70 when he did his lol). Do some great before and after pics/videos. Would love to see it done.

PS where ever you can check into limestone. I did it on my backspash and really love it. I like it because like my granite guy said, “most go limestone untill they see the price then they install travertine”.

EDIT… wait a second… I remember my bathroom vanities I did in the bathrooms. They have many styles and use only 100% wood (60″ vanity was $460 and the 30″ was $260. The quality is sweet and they have those “self closing” doors the wifes love and give you some attention after they get installed. They also do a lot of kitchen cabinets and have a cool show room and have the best deals on their pre fabbed vanity granite tops. They are far from you but will deliver for a fee but the cost on the cabinets would save you some cash. Link is below. This is one of those small places where you get a great deal and know you are not paying for an assload of overhead right when you walk in there and look around. I got both vanities, granite tops, sinks in that video above from them:
http://www.ecciwindows.com/

“Features:
3/4″ solid wood door and face frame
1/2″ quality plywood end panel
Enhancement strip on the back panel
No particle board on our products
Concealed hinge
Built-in finger pull rout
Full-depth wall shelf and base shelf
Fully overlay door design
Door matching drawer front
Three part extendable, ball bearing rail ”

EDIT #2.. DO NOT buy your under mount stainless sink from home depot or any where else. I got 16 gauge deep under mount brand new shipped to me for $120. The under mount and retractable neck facet I bought both off ebay. Most home depot sinks are 18 gauge plus

edit #3 OMG i AM EDITING AGAIN/ (with caps locks on geez). If you buy from IKEA you will have every single hinge, door, drawers, bases in different boxes. I think I had almost 200 different boxes. Putting them all together was really really crazy. A really big turn off from buying from them again. You almost need to hire someone just to do that. That kitchen in my video I did for $5400 after tax. Almost $1500 just for the 3 pantrys alone (the 2 30″ wides and 1 15″ inch wide. Should be the last edit. This post is going to need a second damn chapter if I continue.
