good grief Woof, you need to chill out a bit, how do you react when something serious happens.
Was your day really ruined (none relaxing) by this?

Wouldnt be Alsford timber in Uckfield would it ? Expensive, unfriendly and couldnt give a monkeys. A bit like Uckfield itself.
I have been here two years and use it all the time, but still get hardly any discount.
There is a merchant in Lewes (can`t remember the name, Wenbam Smith I think)they are friendly enough,
Havent tried Covers yet but I will.

Yes - Alsford Uckfield it was. I tried them 4 years ago and was ripped off big time. Thought they might have changed but alas no. Great guess though!

Wenban is in Lewes and has recently moved - very friendly but not sure how competitive.

Covers is a small chain along the coast, most of their wood is at Chichester although they have (well used to have) reasonable supplies in Lewes (or Cooksbridge to be more accurate) - but its their generally helpful service that gets nearly all my custom.

Hello all,

I'm a forum newbie and have been drawn in by this thread. I've just completed my level 2 aca bench joinery but am not working as a joiner, instead doing simple private work at customers houses,.

My most pressing task however is my own kitchen which I am hoping to put together quickly as we have a baby on the way.

Building from scratch is probably out as I have neither the time , space or experience, however the idea of buying in carcasses and fixing a face frame and doors appeals, but I need a little guidance.

First of all I need to source the cabs, Brad, i read your post with interest, particularly your source for cheap custom cabs. Can you tell me who they are and where they are based? Do they do the wirework as well or do you get this seperately?

Whats the best way of fixing a face frame and what is the best sequence of work? Most of all I dont understand how you go about building the drawers.

Sorry to fire so much at you in my first post, but need must!

Cheers

Hi there, you'd be better starting a new thread in Gen WW with a more specific title where there would be a better response rather than posting at the back end of this thread.
