It's time to get the other half of the kitchen installed.
After a quick rip out of the old cabinets, I deal with "hacking" or "customizing" a pair of Ikea cabinets to fit around HVAC ducts.

There is a lot of fiddling and figuring but in the end they fit well and from the outside you can't tell that those cabinets are any different than the rest of my kitchen cabinet uppers.

And yes, I'm standing on a step stool in the video thumbnail.
