No worries, thanks for your interest!

If prohibited then better dun do. Sekali spend money hack, and suay suay they enforce kena fine is really LPPL lol.

Oic what u mean. Of course if can conceal I will try to ba. Agree is ugly to see trunking all over the place. But this is an issue I will let my ID handle. I'm sure they will have lots of tricks up their sleeves to do this. That said, hacking shallow path sounds like alot of money, and if the cost is too much. (Also is this even allowed on unhackable support beams?) Personally I don't mind abit of trunking as long as they are out of sight, and my furniture placements will need to be very tactical. I do have a L-Box false ceiling in my Living Room and I suspect it will be highly utilised to also do "cover and concealment"

Is true, L-Shape custom made table can be made to fit, however price wise will subsequently increase exponentially. Anything custom made, is always very very expensive. Personally, for me is if can don't custom build, then dont. My friend stays in the 45sqm type, and the position of DB Box is alot better flushed near the Kitchen instead of sticking out of nowhere. I understand that later versions of 35sqm have since corrected this issue. Sorry what do u mean by "concealing additional lighting / power points?"

Bedroom Sliding Door Top Rail Track: Terrible mechanism. Push abit will get stuck. Uggh. Very bad rust smell also. Another View of Bedroom Sliding Door Top Rail Track: View from Inside Bedroom with Sliding Door Closed: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Living Room DB Box: Living Room DB Box Door Closed: (When door is closed, your computer/study table at most can only length 1.2m++ otherwise it will protrude out too much. Living Room DB Box Door Open: The door for the DB Box is the swing open type. That means if you put study table right beside it, you will have difficulty opening the DB Box Door. (I request for my ID to change these doors to sliding type so i can put my table there, and still be able to access to DB Box space. Since the DB Box is die die HDB do not allow to remove, might as well make use of it. The bottom part i think quite useful can use it to store Small Broom, Dustpan etc. Click Here for the Next Blog Entry: 1 week after Key Collection.

Thanks Rufus. No worries I will be retaking the pictures with more angles. That entry blog pictures will be changed to better quality ones. For TV, while a 65 inch can fit, the border around it is going to be very thin (Around 1cm) which will make overall look abit funny. I've opted for 55inch which will look much more uniform. DB Box is indeed bad design to put in living room. The max length of study table that I can comfortably put is 1.2m only. Anymore and it will protrude too much. And because I'm putting my computer table there, I will need to remove DB Box door as I won't be able to open it if my table is there. Jason say can change it to Sliding door type so I'm ok. Bedroom sliding door is terrible! If you get yours, I'm sure u will also want to remove.it's bulky, takes up precious space and it smells bad ughhh. I will be making a post complete with masking tape markings to illustrate what I mean.

Thanks mmoh!!

New Entry: Blog Entry Date: 15th September 2017 Friday Its the EVE of my Key Collection Day!!! Less than 16 hours more till I finally collect my keys! Ohhhhhhhhh!!!!! Items to bring for both Ceremonial and Practical Defect Checking purposes.

Erm actually those "in construction" photos by Rufus is done by someone else lol. I haven't even roll pineapple yet lol. Soon tho. Will be posting my "1st day opening" soon!

Ah ok, cool. Very applicable then

Oh i see! Good to see a fellow neighbour! Mine is only a 2 room 35sqm unit tho so it's maybe more applicable to fellow 2 roomers. Nevertheless I do hope the info helps u too!

Hi Sally, Why are you quoting without replying? Do you need some help?

Thanks for the tips! No worries, my ID will be there doing full defect check. Masking tape is a good idea, will be bringing a roll of it to do the rough gauge. I think he means pour some water in the bathroom, make sure it all flows away to ensure the bathroom water drainage works ok.

Thanks Rufus! Yes indeed. Finally the real adventure has begun! Don't worry, it will soon be your turn! Are you starting a reno blog also?

The message ive been waiting for so long finally arrives!!

Very long time never update the blog already. Sorry folks. Still waiting for my keys from HDB argghhh. Just wanna upload this simple but important milestone picture. The FIRST TIME i can literally stand right at my apartment's doorstep and touch my house gate!! AHHHHHHHHHH!?!?!?! where are my keys HDB??????

Hi Minibean, Thanks. Honestly i do not know as I have not gotten my keys to get an actual look. Those pics were from a RC event. I also dun think HDB will do this, more like a job for ID or Contractor to do.

New Entry: Blog Entry Date: 12th July 2017 Wednesday Short update this time. Final drafts of my 3D Drawings (including Living Room) Made a new appointment to meet up with ID to visit Luxury Baths and Lightings.

lol i wish.

Thanks. Yea I've been to imm side the shops. Think I'm going down to Hoe Kee at Genting Road this weekend. Maybe more variety altho I heard Hoe Kee after sales is not so good. $48 for a toilet roll holder and $138 for towel rack seems overly expensive. Anyone knows if Joven 20L water tank at $250 is a good price?

Always good to hear from you too Rufus Final quote by ID is 25k, but of course actual amount give or take would be 30k (not including appliances + furnitures) I'm glad that you got news that people at your estate are getting keys, which means your turn is not far off. Feb 2018 isn't that far away, considering now already July 2017. Thats more or less about 9 months more. Think of it as your BTO BABY start growing already and 9 months later gonna give birth liao! lol!! Good that your CC is holding a meet and greet. While the information isn't anything new, its still good to go down, as they may post the ACTUAL photos of people who applied for OCS furnishings like how mine was. Do remember to take those photos and show your ID. Anyway i've made a recce down onsite today. Prices seems quite expensive to be honest. Hope everyone can give tips on where to buy cheaper. (other than Taobao of course lol)
