Cave remodeling

Got the sink in and put a pantry style cabinet in. Moved the 3rd fridge in also. The prep area beside the sink is awesome. Spatchcock, butt prep now has easy clean up. I'm getting pretty much my own kitchen. It's ugly compared to an outdoor kitchen but damn it functions well.

Nice, but you need to clean your camera lens, henapple.

Looks excellent, fridge for everything that needs to be kept cold, good work area and most of all it is yours! 

Well designed kitchens for serious food prep are seldom beautiful or "designer" elegant. They are and should be, practical. That's why I cook on an egg (or my old gasser - side burner is a can't do without) prep in a deep SS sink, while SWMBO enjoys coffee with her friends in her "kitchen" with the glass topped clock (boils water - but don't try to saute on the damn thing) and the white Cerolan sinks that immediately see the bleach Vim if there is one drop of BBQ sauce on them. 

Thanks for the chance to vent.

Looks awesome.  I am definitely envious, and my wife is as well.  She is getting tired of my butt juice all over her kitchen.

Amen to that Skiddymarker.

Congrats on the new kitchen! I know my new kitchen is a world of difference. Between the extra counter space and better organization, it is a thrill to go into the kitchen to make something and it's still a thrill going out to the Egg to cook it up. I know you're gonna love yours, it's sounding and looking good, although it is a little hard to see through the condensation on the lens. Need to get you some AC for the kitchen.

Damn droid... Too lazy to use the Canon and transfer to the mac.

Those pics are the highest quality I have ever seen.

I like the sink a lot. I am really pushing for my own area in the yard

Did you bury your camera in Ozark Oak dust and PBR?

@SmokeyPitt: I'm supporting your wife on this one. You can't just leave your butt juice laying around

@henapple: your space is shaping up pretty nicely. Any pics of the full area?

thats awesome ,you must live in a warm climate I couldn't have that set up in my garage the pipes would freeze in the winter 

henapple

Middle Tennessee... For the most part we're okay

Charlesmaneri

yeah I live in Long Island N.Y. and we get bitter cold in the winter last year we had 38 inches of snow and like 20 tp 25 degrees for like 1/2 the winter

We don't have the extreme cold here. I have to leave the sink dripping a few times a year.

Looks great but one suggestion I would give is to make sure the outlet over the sink is GFCI protected.

That's a wise idea.  When I built my shop, which is categorized the same as a garage, I learned all the 120v outlets need to be on GFCI.  So you probably have them, since the electrical codes for permitting are based on the national electrical code guidelines.  Maybe unlikely if you're in an area like where I work, where the enforcement is more like Mexico....(not New Orleans).
