Countertops will be granite. I was thinking about just doing a thin panel for now like you mentioned. I'm trying to get this wrapped up to get out of the construction loan as soon as possible, but also don't want to halfass anything.
Let's just say I've been looking into everything he did. He started off good then fizzled out fast. He will see his day in court.
Yes it's Pex A if that is what you mean. Those pictures are just a taste of what he did or didn't do, so I kind of gave myself a crash course in pex tubing.
It's all on a new build house. My biggest concern was all the lines running through the house as the contractor left a pressure gauge connected that only went up to 15 psi. I did pressurize it myself a few weeks ago, and it's still holding at 75 psi. Water pressure will never get above 50 psi.
That's what I was thinking. It would basically look like a cabinet door.

Why you spaced the cabinets out for plumbing vs running everything in the wall is another mystery. 

I live in a rather cold climate where pipes are susceptible to freezing. The contractor who originally worked on this was also an idiot. He was fired, and I'm finishing what he did or didn't do. He just left pex lines dangling out the adjacent wall. I also had to install a hot/cold hose bibb right where the sink is. Hence the complicated pipe routing. I didn't want to cut up $7k of cabinetry, so I did the 2x4 method. Everything after the pex is what I finished. Wanted to keep it neat.




I think I found what I am looking for though. They're called base cabinet end panels. Looks fairly simple to make one.

2x4s run behind the cabinets because space was needed for the waterlines to the sink. There's about a 2 inch gap at the top. The baseboard in the pic isn't attached. I just put it in the pictures to give an idea of what I'm dealing with. Any suggestions?

That's why the Union begged him to lead their campaign. That's also why he did so much with so little.

What if Lee resorted to Sherman's tactics when he was at D.C.'s doorstep?

Well, this is confusing...
Little known rule. They are only allowed to block an intersection for a certain amount of time (something like 10-15 minutes). See that blue sign with a phone number at the crossing? Call it and report it.

Didn't realize Michelob brought back the small mouth pull tabs.
Jefferson Parish should give Grand Isle to Lafourche Parish.
Elvis was his name, and he was was a cool little red squirrel.
Reminds me of my last wife. Looks like it just leaves a bigger mess to clean up.
Same can be said for corporate offices that waste enormous amounts of money, then take benefits and pay from employees to increase profit margin for the shareholders.

Corporate is there for the shareholders.
Unions are there for the employees.
Both are usually corrupt.

Yeah, we only spend 33% of our lives on a pillow that affects the other 67% our lives. Makes perfect sense to go cheap.
