Day_46: Bar Counter [UPDATE]

This here's the source of much of my stress: the bar counter that fell through the cracks. Quite literally.
While it was great to finally get work on this started, it wasn't all smooth sailing.

When I got there first thing in the morning, the contractor (different one from the main contractor) had already hacked the wall in the wrong place. This is despite my drawing on the floor the exact plan for the kitchen. The hacking on the right is the wrong one.


I laid the cornerstones exactly how I wanted them.


Later on in the day at lunchtime, there's progress. The wooden formwork is built. But they had marked the hole for the sink in the wrong place. Why does this sound familiar? Lucky I caught the mistake before any real damage was done.

View from the front. The extra brickwall jutting out on the right is for knee-room when seated.


The hole to seat the sink in. Positioned CORRECTLY.


 

As of now they've poured the concrete into the form already. Hope it turns out according to expectations when I go there in the morning. Stay tuned.
