Finally got the microwave installed over the stove.

This wasnt as easy a task as it normally would be. Our kitchen cabinets were hand made at some point and aren’t built to exact standard dimensions. So, I had to not only remove the old cabinet, but build a replacement for it.

Here you see the old stove and hood that was there when we bought the house:

and, with a little work (and still in need of painting, the installed microwave and new cabinet.

I havent decided what to do with the center of the cabinet yet, but im thinking a simple glass shelf in the center. I plan to replace all the kitchen cabinets in the coming months, so no sense doing more then I have to. I figure I can hide the outlet with a plant or something and that’ll be ok for awhile. So, now I think we can finally clean the kitchen and stop the plaster dust getting all over everything.
