Good luck with your project a couple years ago I built a 12x16 timber frame cabin with a 12/12 pitch roof with pine 8x8s from my woods and oak 4x6 for rafters, I’m still putting on the interior finishing, nice project but glad I’ll never do it again
What R you doing today?

This is how it was originally.
This is after I pushed out the cabinets for the larger range top. I still haven't found a use for the microwave hole.
@wood1954 @vinny Thanks. I’m not exactly winging it. Woodworking and hand tool work is a long time hobby. When I built my house 26 years ago ago I did stick framing with a timber frame load bearing floor between 1st and 2nd floor. They were hand hewed! I was younger then! About 6 years later I built a timber frame workshop from home grown timber. That one stil had a conventional framed roof. This one is all timbers except for the side sheds. They will be open to the weather so I’m using treated posts there. All self taught. If you can read you can learn almost anything. My next TF will be a pavilion by the vineyard! I may even do a cruck-frame.
Finally finished the riding arena today. At least the riding surface. Did the final roll of the top course this morning and spread the 48 tons of sand. Mrs Corker is so pleased she took me to Tractor Supply and bought me 29 portable corral panels. Seriously though I’m very happy with how it turned out and that it is done. I do a lot of DIY projects but this one was the most physically demanding I’ve ever done. Even with the help of my little red tractor. Still have landscaping to do around it and I’m going to put a sprinkler system to keep the dust down. But she will have horses on it tomorrow.
Love your Kitchen Vinny!
Thank you. Believe it or not, this is modular... built in a factory and delivered in 2 pieces. They make them pretty nice these days. I was going to build myself, but last year was year 10 of our 5 year plan to develop the property and build the house. Not knowing if lumber prices would come down, we bit.
I have considered the winerack, but it is right above the wall oven. It doesn't get HOT, but definitely strong temperature fluctuations.
Thank you, me too!

Thank you.
The most polite answer I could think of is that I respect food too much to put it in a microwave. I haven't used one in many a year.

No longer a newbie, but still clueless.
That would be a perfect solution, if I wasn't that one guy in 300,000 that doesn't drink coffee.

I have a small one, bar fridge size. It's a good idea because it will be outgrown.
I was looking at a small one, but it's too big to fit your space.

Actually, now that I look at the space and the dimensions of fridges that would be a hard one. Best idea so far has been to raise the oven up and put another drawer underneath. I contacted the cabinet makers and was going to have some cabinets made for above the freezer in the laundry, as well. All contact has since stopped. It seems that everyone is so busy at the moment that if you just want a small project done you are a nuisance.
I'm taking the long way around to explain my Jeep addition today and also say how amazing Amazon is. Saturday night we were invited by our newest neighbors to go out to their property in Sedona where they're in the opening stages of building a new home. Neighbor Wes was putting on a virtual fireworks display on a portable 40 foot wide screen with a sound system. There were probably 20 or 30 people total with 6 or 8 of us from Cottonwood representing their current hometown. It was bring your own lawn chairs and drinks and lasted about an hour. Lori offered to be designated driver of the Jeep since there were four of us riding in it and a few beers somehow snuck themselves into the ice chest. Wes and Nancy's property is about midpoint of the very scenic Red Rocks Loop which is about 6 miles long. It's two lanes of twisty, narrow, dark and mostly unmarked road that Lori had not driven before. The Jeep still had it's original headlights which are weak to say the least and have been on my "to buy" and "to do" lists for a while. WELL NOW, by the time she finished driving down that loop and across the valley back home I was advised that I had better get new lights for that "thing" before ever taking it back out at night.
I ordered a set of projector LEDs from Amazon late Saturday night and allowing for Sunday and the 4th being a holiday they still arrived at the house at noon today. Amazing.
Pic of one installed with the old light still in and then both replaced, I think they look pretty cool and we'll go running around after dark to see how well they work. I'm sure it's going to be like Night and Day.

I first read that as “Jeep addiction”.
I suppose that would not be wrong?
Moved into new home Jan 2021, still waiting for them to fix a drawer in the kitchen that was built too small. LOW on the totem pole.
