My helper!
And a couple shots of the close out panels I built on either end of the base cabinets. I still need to build a new bench top. My plan is for it to go over the close out panels and not use a back splash...I just want a nice big area to work on since I gave up quite a bit of counter top in order to make the space more Karma friendly!

Also I need to pour and concrete step where I cut the new door in.

Note the task lighting....and air regulator for the big air compressor that's out in the store room!
