Ive been using those air bags for a good while now but they have an issue with deflating on their own. Ive stuck with winbag despite ALL of them doing the same. Somehow they must get dust kn them which just effecvthe seal and thus they let air out. Wouldn't be without them for hanging doors, fitting windows, opening up gaps, etc etc. But slightly annoying for them to deflate at the wrong moment. Certainly wouldn't trust my winbags for more than 20 seconds holding.....

Nice to see your kitchen units are well thought out and fit better than the roof trusses. Like that corner piece. Just installed a flat pack kitchen with the same corner detail only they gave you nothing to transition the corner. Had to fabricate a bit myself. The other thing I see they still do in UK is the stand off for pipes etc. behind the unit which can also be used to scribe. We don't get that. The backs are flat to the wall. Fine on a new all square house but useless on an old Queenslander. The other thing we often get is wrapped panels and doors. They don't like being scribed. If you cut through the wrap it wants to peel back. It just falls off like the skin it is. Again not good for old out of level houses. You would think the sheet would be stuck to the board but every one I have had to cut just peels off. Don't do many kitchens here. Kitchen fitting is a Trade on its own. They call them cabinet makers. Being English this makes me think of bespoke furniture makers not guys that make chipboard cupboards. But each to their own.

Hi Dave🖐I know exactly the plastic wrapped doors/panels you're talking about, and agree with you about how it de-bonds from the surface when you cut it😵and yes, the 50mm void at the back of the base units gives a fair bit of flexibility for fitting in different properties👍Great comment, as always👊and thanks for watching 😎 Cheers

I did kitchens for 8 yrs Del! I was thinking about the 2-3 times I never had to scribe a tall wall panel or check measure guy didn’t just allow extra 25 mm on for fitting! Thinking you lucky bugger! Then 2 seconds later… ‘ I might have to shave this one a couple of mm…’ 😂👍🏻 Awesome kitchen company! Ours SUCKED! Bare cabinets! You had to hinge all doors on site, even make up drawer boxes and fit runners etc. it was a nightmare! Then fitting this crappy 6.5 mm ‘Granit’ sheet on top of either existing laminate ( makeover) or particle board if new. Miter front edge, colour match an epoxy and glue front edges on. If you could think about the hardest way possible to install a kitchen, that was their ‘specialty’ And as always though, you got GOOD! And FAST! and see if you can guess what they did about your install fee the quicker you got…🤔

Hi Simon🖐I consider a few things when fitting full height end panels🤔In this particular instance, I think the panel going all the way to the floor would have made an awkward, tight little corner where the adjacent plinth run would have finished.

Hi. Thank you. It's unusual for me to see a KREG pocket hole. We don't use that here. We don't use a rigid back wall (18 mm?), although I can already see the benefits. Congratulations on your work. Hello@@thetallcarpenter
