I saw those non-hydraulic lifting system at Ikea where you can stop halfway and it stays there. Not sure what they are called but they are quite easy to open and close.

continued...

Slowly made my way from Bishan to Amk to Hougang in search of hubstation service ctr.

I was supposed to go to Ave 3 but mistakenly ended up in Ave 6.

Took a cab to Ave 3 and sat on the couch listening to MJ on MTV and reading my book "P.S I love You" (wonderful book by the way) while waiting for damage report.

Apparently my hubstation ceased to record for a very long time and there's a blue screen spelling out to reformat hdd.

To repair the recording...$98

To change hdd $100

IMO...Never buy IT! Rent your box and throw back to them if there's any prob.......Argh went ahead to fix recording only.

Left for AMK and nap like a beauty....I was so tired! Bought tixs to watch transformers and had my late lunch.

Reached Bishan at 3ish and found the guys to seal up wall recess are here too. Wor total 5 peeps in my house.

AC trunking hidden...below and behind this board

mbr_wallrecess.jpg

This aircon trunking is also sealed up by board...You won't notice it for sure =)

ac_trunking1.jpg

4pm Aircon peeps wrapped up. Their boss aka my dad's friend came along to double check the work too.

Carpenter also came along to discuss works rd 2 cos we took another extra week to decide details.

Decision to use BLUM tandem full extension runners for dry consumables (@ tall unit) and pots/pans.

3 x 450mm @ $47.43 per pair

1 x 400mm (right below hob)

1 x 450mm (right below 400mm)

Breakfast table mechanism $250 from Kiang Sing too

Est below $700

Gave up on using BLUM hinges and tandemboxes....such can be possible phase 2 when budget allows

Anyway "transformers" is not as bad as what critics say....=)
