I figured out a different setup that let us discard all but two of the plastic feet. Yay, me. Corner cabinet in place, duplicate on other side will be a piece of cake.<\/p>\n<p>After that, we tackled the piece that has been giving me the most nightmares (yes, one can have nightmares over cabinetry). We are installing a fabulous quartz countertop, and we decided to have the sink and bay window be flush, which meant that the sink cabinet had to be PERFECTLY ALIGNED with the new bay window.<\/p>\n<p>Which it now is. <\/p>\n<p>The sink cabinet was also a challenge in terms of the number of pipes and outlets and ducts and other pipes coming into\/out of it. We did the artistically minimal number of cuts necessary, in a time-consuming, but very satisfactory fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we got an additional cabinet up, but this one was  the first we did with the crown molding, which added time, but looks very nice.<\/p>\n<p>So, a very long day, but a satisfying one. Tackled two of the hardest pieces in the cabinet install, and are ready to move onto further victories tomorrow.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div style='text-align:center'><a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900319792915810'><img src='https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/-wASsZadF0fI\/VQ46XlkI5WI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/r2z392hmvGw\/IMG_20150321_173300191_HDR.jpg?imgmax=660' style='max-width:650px;' \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style='text-align:center'>\n<a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900319872944818' style='width:50px;height:50px;display:inline-block;background-size:cover;background-image:url(https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-gEjaOh8OYBY\/VQ46Xl3OCrI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/YAAffPRAePI\/IMG_20150321_190716579.jpg?imgmax=300);'><\/a>\u00a0<a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900321266960930' style='width:50px;height:50px;display:inline-block;background-size:cover;background-image:url(https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/-HTm1WLO26Pg\/VQ46XrDlCiI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/jbdKL7md1t8\/IMG_20150321_190554288.jpg?imgmax=300);'><\/a>\u00a0<a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900320437814658' style='width:50px;height:50px;display:inline-block;background-size:cover;background-image:url(https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/-wMkwK3XT2ZA\/VQ46Xn95RYI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/mjNu_WhIb6U\/IMG_20150321_173539352.jpg?imgmax=300);'><\/a>\u00a0<a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900321490797058' style='width:50px;height:50px;display:inline-block;background-size:cover;background-image:url(https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/-ok9vRU1YccE\/VQ46Xr48ggI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/4wkXFME0fZA\/IMG_20150321_173310514.jpg?imgmax=300);'><\/a>\u00a0<a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900322288236322' style='width:50px;height:50px;display:inline-block;background-size:cover;background-image:url(https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/-P6YJCcvHwao\/VQ46Xu3EdyI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/j41jt2rkZpc\/IMG_20150321_150817457.jpg?imgmax=300);'><\/a>\u00a0<a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145\/6128900319845108210' style='width:50px;height:50px;display:inline-block;background-size:cover;background-image:url(https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/-wz4hAoQvdUo\/VQ46XlwlSfI\/AAAAAAADLsc\/9NinbI2Mj0E\/IMG_20150321_115433336.jpg?imgmax=300);'><\/a>\u00a0\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/101083456815352083930\/albums\/6128900320550068145'>In Album Hill-Kleerup Kitchen &#8211;
