Stove Finally Put In!

The stove finally went in last Friday. Missed thanksgiving by a day but we ended up cooking it on Sunday. The last couple things that needed to happen to get the stove in was to cut a hole in the ceiling and route the vent line through it. This also means that the fan had to get hooked up upstairs. I still have to complete the final routing upstairs, right now it just vents into the storage room above the kitchen.

 

Once the vent was put in place it was time to put up the hood. This just sits on top and is toe-screwed in place.

A piece of trim was cut to cover the bottom and where the screws went though. You can see in the second picture the trim getting the same hammered copper paint that the rest of the hood has.

Here you can see the stove in place. In this picture it is still sitting on a couple of 2x4's because this is the lowest that we could get it with the lift we have. We had to use a 2x6 as a lever to lift it off the blocks and to set the legs to the correct height.

A trim piece was also made for the top of the hood to close out to the ceiling. Here you can see thanksgiving turkey sitting on the stove. 

 

 We are still waiting on a couple of hinges to finish up the door on the right. We will be working on the little stuff for a while now. This includes trimming the doors, building drawers, putting in door stops, putting on handles/knobs, etc.
