Located in the sw wall. The microwave cabinet will be hung under this cabinet and will hang 12 inches off the counter top.
The range hood vent is hidden above the cabinet on the left and exits the wall over the corner cabinet. I'm building a custom 12 high crown that will set from the cabinet top to the ceiling. The walls in the kitchen is 9 feet.

Thank you Justin, I am always appreciative of feed back from a fellow cabinet maker.  It isn't hickory but still a nice red oak.  Lots of challenges in this job however the hard part if over.  Actually looking forward to building the custom 12 high crown molding.  It will have some table saw cove cutting and some dentel molding.  The fun part of this build was being able to design this set and do some extended cabinets like the range hood cabinet and refrigerator cabinet.  It is all custom with lot of features not seen in the photos like a large amount of pull outs.  Kreg should be happy as there are well over 2500 screws in this build.  The lower cabinets are all 3/4 plywood including he back as the granite needed the support.  Under the granite is also a glued and screwed 3/4inch ply top inset into the cabinets.  The upper cabinets are 3/4 ply with 1/2 ply backs.  All the exposed cabinet ends have raised panels.  there will be a microwave cabinet hanging under the angle cabinet and will be 12 inches off the counter top.  Another thing I enjoyed in the build is that the wall were 9 feet allowing me to build 45 inch high upper cabinets with a 18 inch back splash.  the owners are both tall so the base cabinets are 38 inches off the floor.  This created a problem with the range not being high enough to fit so to solve this problem a plat form was build between the cabinets and this was tile covered.  Another problem was venting the range hood which was a high performance unit with lots of suction.  I hide the 8 inch round duct over the top and it exits the wall to the outside above the angled corner cabinet.  This is another reason I build the range hood cabinet to extend outware in order to get the hood more centered over the range.  Would I do it again?????? yes in a heart beat.

Looking forward to seeing another one of your builds posted. 

I am also build another chest of drawers that will have a beaded face frame and it will be a 8 drawer unit.  Have the face frame build and working on the glue up for the sides and the top.  It is alder like the 12 drawer I did a while ago.

Beautiful work as always my friend!!!  I love the mullions in the corner cabinet, that's something that I haven't tried yet, but always wanted to.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
