Mwerkz, it appears you're quite good at photo layout with details in one shot looking at your photos. Also looks like you're good at photo editing as well. :P

can get diff size of wood range from 20-55buks. leg ranges fr 5-50bucks. de cabinet support is abt 55bucks.

*agreed* bo pian have to budget budget on these. Anyway it does still look nice and since it's cheap why not. At most after a few years change... changing looks now and then is also quite good. :)

mwerkz, was at raffles city earlier on since I was at the bookfest & food fair at suntec.

They only have the red colour stock & the voodoo man holder is not compact in my hubby's opinion but ya the knives are really sharp. In the end never buy it. :(

I've been eyeing the 2m table top with 5 "curry" legs. Total costs will be $80 w/o delivery and fixing up. Until my friend tell me that the Ikea table cannot carry much weight, and will warp after some time. She is using the 1.5m length table, w/o much load. Hmm, was thinking of using that table to put 1pc, 1laptop, 1 laser printer, network equipments etc... so very worried that it will collapse suddenly or warp badly. Dun know where else sell simple white and big study table that isn't too costly. :dunno:

The food fair is at suntec actually. And there's also the bookfest plus the shoes & bags sale i think?

You see the best place to put the knife holder is just below the dishrack which is suspended. The voodoo man is a little big to be placed underneath the dishrack for one thing. It would be nicer if the voodoo man was a little smaller on the scale actually which is why not compact.

haha. y no red in de kitchen? my whole kitchen is full of red :(

not really dangerous wor. de knife in de holder is held by magnets. so it's pretty hard to pull it out n in of the holder. kinda safe.

lol. the voodoo knife holder is a little big to be sitting under the dishrack due to height cos the dishrack is mounted slightly above the sink tap. Plus my hubby prefer compact knife holder.. So its not the problem of not having enough space on countertop
