A little help from your friends


After the work to replace the disposal yesterday, I planned to take the day off and just do some editing. A friend needed assistance replacing an over the stove microwave that was also a light and vent hood. When I got there, he had everything well underway. The mounting bracket was on the wall and it looked like it was just put the microwave on the wall. Just about but not quite. We still needed to make sure the holes to screw the microwave to the cabinet were in the correct place. One side was correct and we could reuse the existing hole. The other side took a little measuring and the drilling, but we got it right the first time. Measure three times, drill once. With that we were able to put the microwave on the wall bracket and then put the bolt in that attached it to the cabinet. A little bit of work on the exhaust ducting and we were done. So much better than the day before. It really helps to have more than two hands on the job. Like most of life, everything goes smoother with a little help from your friends.
