Last week, the correctly made piece of glass arrived for the shower surround. The installer came back and installed it, along with the shower door.
The door swings both in and out, but we'll have to be careful that it doesn't hit the shower valve or head when we swing it in.
During the week I dry-fit the cabinets along the one wall before fully installing them over the weekend.
Since these have a pre-installed front apron in the toe kick, leveling was a bit different than normal. Normally you'd shim-up the low side, but the floor drops half an inch over the width of the cabinet on the left. It would look pretty funny to have a half inch gap under the "foot" on one side. So I shaved some off the bottom on the other instead.
Scribing the pillars to the wall on each end didn't take too long, though.
However, it was a lot of messing about to get the gaps between each piece to be uniform so that the whole assembly looked right and spanned the length of the wall.
Now that these are installed I can move to the corner cabinet that will be directly behind me in the second photograph.
