Hey all,
So about a year ago I built in a set of cabinets around a fireplace. The nook wasn't close to square so I asked the LOML if she ever wanted drawers in there and she swore she wouldn't. I built it in place and cheated a bit knowing I would never have to square up drawer slides.
Well guess what, she found a loop hole and claimed " I said I would never want a drawer, I never said anything about a pull out shelf". (Well played in my opinion).
SO here is the question, can I use an under mount single slide, make the shelf narrow enough to clear the FF, or do I need to bite the bullet, shim the sides and turn a couple hour job into an all day one?
Any advice is welcome
