How did they fix your microwave recess. We kinda got a recess and thought the measurements would be fine . We where wrong . So we have a appliance cupboard at the bottom then the microwave recess then overhead . Microwave is only 470 deep they have put a vent thing at the back and I think they have 30ml behind it but still not deep enough . A lot of these inbuilt microwaves need a lot of venting for example electralux depth ie 466 and you need at least 550 . My hight is only 420 . I'm a bit screwed so might have to put it in pantry. Don't know what I'm going to put in recess as it will look funny with nothing . Just make sure you have plenty of room on all three sides They haven't "fixed" it as yet. Cabinet maker is coming out Wed to have a look, not sure if he is installing the microwave because the SS said there is NO WAY it's going to fit atm.... ardie514 Hey there, have also just been thinking about you. Keep checking your timeline to reassure myself:-) I think we'll be on a v similar one just this year. Plans being amended in drafting now and hopefully prestart by end April. Still holding out hope to be in by Christmas but don't want to get my hopes up! Glad they're fixing the micro situation, but what a bloody ordeal. Look forward to seeing more pictures. Good luck ardie, keep on eye on things & push when you need to Our RedInk Build Thread - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=64118&p=1004131#p1004131 ** Timeline Page 1 Moved In - 19.12.13 Re: RedInk, Baldivis - Moved In, finishing off - Pics 1183Mar 15, 2014 12:14 pm Microwave saga is OVER!!!!

Re: RedInk, Baldivis - Moved In, finishing off - Pics 1187Mar 16, 2014 1:31 pm CC101 I like your shed. did you install yourself or get it done. do you mind sharing as to where did you get this and how much did you pay. Shed was from a mob in Sydney, it was approx $800 (inc $250 for delivery) & we had to put it together ourselves...The slab that was under it was $450 so all in all approx $1250. Mr Charlie & I won't be doing that again though! It was a PITA to put together, Mr Charlie had already gotten all the sides put together & it still took the 2 of us a WHOLE day to get it up!

Interior is looking great, love the cubes we have some here in the hospital house that we rent. There are lots of painting issues, most of the frames were not painted properly & considering we paid $6k for RI to paint the whole house it doesn't look like it......we have found some many runs / drips / crappy prep & paint.

Our titles weren't until march 2013 and here we are April 2014 and I don't see myself infor another 6 weeks and that's not even the end .
