Home owner's wife acted as the designer/contractor. Just left one like it today. Little annoying stuff did not add up till she said I was my own designer. I wanted to say I can tell but bit my tonque. I was a 300-400k Remodel

Drill two corners in the back of the microwave and use a jigsaw, go a bit larger so you can get the old stuff out.

Does this look like a $200,000 dollar home to you?

I wish I had a better pic but if you closely above where the deck is at the soffit below the roof you'll see a drain pipe for one of the five furnaces in the house. that must be a helluva place to sit and eat a cheeseburger in the summer time.

great design, huh?
