Well there really wasn't much to do but I learned a few things one I already knew but went ahead and did it anyways and now I have to redo it.
Was working on the small cabinet that goes above the microwave which was just framing out a couple of small openings for the cabinet doors that I am going to put up their, had been looking at it and deciding whether I was going to put cabinet doors up there or leave it open and put some decorative trim around it like a shelf an open shelf I decided to go ahead and close it in and put doors on it I figured I had enough leftover scrap 2 x 2 timbers or studying to make the enclosure "WRONG" was a big waste of time have to get a couple of nice straight 2 x 2's and do it right but this isn't what I learned what I already knew but didn't take to heart.
First thing in any project that you are doing whether the building a doghouse or whatever do not pre-ordered your lumbar that you are needing get your lazy butt in your vehicle drive down to your local hardware store lumberyard and look at the stuff you are buying will come back and bite your ass if you do not. When I ordered the lumber for what I am doing I just went ahead and from the local Home Depot in my area Ok Ok just some simple 2 x 2's and 2 x 4's and the drywall screws and some wallboard it seems like they gave me the most twisted 2 x 2's they could find the 2 x 4's were okay and the wall boards were.
The other thing I learned and already knew not try making something out of scrap yes it works in some cases and will probably work here too but I am a little picky about this so I'm going to start over at the beginning of the month when I can afford to go down and get good lumber just need a couple of sticks of 2 x 2's I also have to get a router and the first Index of router bits I'm going to need more 12-2 wire 20 amp outlet and two 50 amp outlets for the range top and stove.
One of the other things I have learned and already knew mobile homes or not square I am so used to having to have everything square and it seems like when they are building these things there's a guy standing there scratching and head looking at a square and going "what is this silly "L" looking thing for" and pitching it out the window. They also don't know what a carpenter's level is.
