wet wall
We have to leave this critical wall until we're ready to actually start instaling stuff. Handwashing dishes for 6 in the laundry sink is no one's idea of fun.
This will go, reverse side
We're taking this out back to about the middle of the bookshelf.
Discovery!
Under the sheet vinyl, under the chipboard, under the linoleum,under the plywood, under the tarpaper, under the studwall, we found ...
HARDWOOD!!!!!

Can you think of a better place for an avacado green, electric cooktop than next to the trash can?
We thought of keeping the hood and repainting it black with auto paint, but decided not to gamble on 40yo wiring.

<$90 will put a piece of damaged/discontinued, laminate countertop on it and give it a useful, 2nd life in DH's workshop.
Keeping tidy
A tip from HGTV -- strip sheet vinyl off into rolls and tape them for compact disposal.
The Plan
Just to make 100% certain that the cabinets will fit and that we've allowed for the thickness of the wall DH is going to build a mock-up.
