Cabinet score...

[Greg]

I picked up 4 cabinets from a home remodel today, finding them on freecycle. The bottom one is about 4' long, on top of it is a double door upper kitchen cabinet, the one on the right is a medicine cabinet, and the last (not pictured) is an undersink bathroom cabinet.

The leg came from a broken crated desk I found next to the dumpster at Fred Meyer Food/Garden center... I got a nice center drawer with dividers, byt the main parts of the desk were crushed. Looks like it fell off the truck, but the legs are perfect. The white packing covers 3 identical ones.

The cabinets will be used in my shop, and I haven't figured out what to do with the legs.

All for free!

That's great Greg, you never have enough storage space in the shop. I have remodeled 2 big kitchens and all the uppers came home into my shop. I always give a customer the option if I am taking out the old ones of selling them, if they tell me I can have them I am thrilled to bring em home.

Jeesh Greg!!! You can use the desk legs for "Peg Legs" for the "Inbreds" some of whom were unfortunate enough to be born with only one leg.

Ed,

Do you think if I wrap one in tin foil, I can pass it off as chrome?

Yep, never enough...but first I gotta get enough "stuff" out so I can even reach the walls to hang them! :omg: :biglaugh:

Seems like I take one trailer load of pure junk to the recycle center, then end up bringing 2 loads of good stuff back from freecycle... :fing20:

I also got two 7' tall but about 2' square tool storeage cabinets from my neighbor when he recently moved. They were outside next to the garage 'till I had room for them, but I had to bring them inside because of the rain we've been getting.

Some 10 years ago this contractor by me was knocking down perfectly good homes so he could put up mansions. I asked him if I could take out the kitchen cabinets before the wrecking crew got there. I couldn't believe how nice the cabinets were!

They would not fit in my upstairs kitchen so I installed them in my basement workroom. When I finally sold my house the buyer's got the idea to build a second summer kitchen using those cabinets. This helped unload my house during a dead real estate market.
