ebinmaine 67,592 #1 Posted February 3, 2022 So I get this text from Trina: I may have destroyed the kitchen!! 🤔😊 Today she decided to tear into moving the stove (over) and bar (out) of the kitchen. Here's some pics... Unfortunately we didn't think to get a true "before". You can see the bar off to the right in this shot. Partially removed. Bar gone. I'll get more pictures later. Basically on the far side of the stove as you see it there was a 2" thick butcher block section about 25 by 28. Absolutely stupid location because you couldn't even use it. We're taking the butcher block out, cutting it in half, moving the stove towards the wall, and laying out the butcher block on top of a counter sort of as a miniature bar but actual work surface this time. 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In all seriousness please be safe with that LP Gas line. Nothing to take lightly. Bored??? How'd ya guess??? I keep tellin' you folks ya gotta keep the BBT busy or she'll go find something to do!! Appreciate the advice on the propane. Should be a straight shot remove and shuffle over. Don't even need to remove any fittings. We put the stove in. Just remove the yellow hose and slide the basement stuff over 3 beams. Reconnect. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm off tomorrow. Wait. I'm always off. I'm not going to work tomorrow. Likely there will be some good quality puttering and tinkering happening on this and the big wheel tractor project. Wait'll ya see the kitchen floor......... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
