Sylvie: It is infuriating that your unhappiness does not turn to fat! Charade |

When
we got our house the kitchen was enclosed on two sides. I removed the
sides but left the shelf island which was anchored to the ceiling at
one end and to the wall on the other side by a long ugly beam which had
originally supported a sliding door. My long desired intention was to remove
this beast beam.
I
finally got around to
removing the beam and attaching the shelf to the ceiling. To do so I
first installed a brace to prevent the shelf from moving and then cut the beam out. I attached
another beam
to a ceiling rafter using a steal plate on one side and steel angle on the
other side for strength. Looks much opener now.
