I'm hanging around the house for the holiday weekend, so decided to do some of the tweeks that I thought of during my maiden voyage.
The fish handles for the cabinets were installed the other day. At $9.00 a piece I thought that was alot of dough, but I like them.

Glued some of the diamond plate on the sides to give a finished look to the lower edges. I guess its the firefighter in me that I like diamond plate.

Then I fitted cubbies in the galley for the stuff I use all the time. I cut each to fit the things that I use. Will install a knife slots for the sharper knives when I Poly and trim it tomorrow. I don't think I'll put my good Henkles in there. :lol:

I have a couple of other Tweeks in mind and post as I do them. :thumbsup:

The Cubbies that I installed last week worked out great. After 3 days of heavy rains found small leak in hatch and repaired that today. I'm just about done with the whole project and ready to enjoy the fruits of my labor for many years to come. :)
