Can't wait to see it finished, Joe!
Oh wow, that's a big project Joe, I love Ikea but hate the having to put it together thing, would love to see the finished kitchen..
What a project. I'm glad you're keeping us updated so we can marvel at your good work and feel exhausted just watching. :D
I'm looking forward to seeing the results of all your work. Sounds like you are doing the whole thing; pretty ambitious! Good luck.
