Talking, a little high, but alert and well. The sedation hasn’t worn completely off. It is a huge relief to be past the surgery

Next time you install a cabinet, or anything similar... Make sure you shim behind the points you screw it to the wall. Otherwise it will not be solidly attached. For that bathroom laundry sink, you should have shimmed directly behind those 2 screws. I prefer the composite shims as they don't split like the cedar ones do. Once you have it screwed down and checked level and plumb, then use the multitool to cut off the shim sticking out. You can also use plywood or scraps of lumber the correct thickness. If you have a planer handy, you can make various thicknesses from 1x stock and write the thickness on them so you don't have to measure each time.

You have been so meticulous on your build. I know it is easy to be a Monday morning quarterback,but are are you going to fill in the gaps in the sheetrock around the water and waste pipes? (I know they are out of sight)

I was thinking, he forgot to put the escutcheons on, but I’m not sure I used them inside cabinets. It’s nice the back of cabinet is open. Most of mine has a back, and I had to cut holes for the pipes coming thru.
