Handle with care

I hadn’t realised that Brian had been putting off attaching our new handles to the cupboard doors. I thought he was just waiting until he’d made the final cupboard door. But he told me yesterday that he’d been concerned about not getting them level.

After a bit of encouragement, he decided today was the day. First thing first, remove the old handles. We were missing one, which is why we had to buy replacements. We’d found some old style ‘arts and crafts’ ones on the internet, which would suit our styling really well. He got the trusty laser out to ensure they would be level across all four doors.

I was curious then, as he pulled an old cereal box out of the recycling. And proceeded to trace and cut out, what looked like a template. He used this to accurately position where he needed to drill the holes in the doors, and then carefully screw the handles on.

Voila, four beautiful looking new handles, that are laser level. Just perfect.
