Having completed most of the base cabinets for the kitchen, pantry, and laundry last week, I decided to treat my shop to some cabinets as well. They will do double duty as a miter saw station. Consistent with other choices in the design of the basement, I decided on a floating design so that there would be no damage in the event of flooding. Our foundation waterproofing has lived up to expectations for a bone-dry basement but the risk of flooding from the river is one we cannot ignore. The cabinets did not budge with me sitting on the edge but I will probably add some feet to ensure they do not deflect when I load them up. Each cavity will get a set of full extension drawers which is a project I will defer until after we have moved in. I still need to apply a finish and add some trim to the edges but I was quite happy with the amount of progress I made in one day.
