Default second hand cabinets

My father-in-law has put in new kitchen cabinets and is giving me the old ones for my garage/brewery. It means a major clean, sort and pitch so I can get them in and organized, but it will be great. He even has the counter tops they pulled out.

You can't beat that! If I was near you, I'd offer my manual labor, but it's just out of range.

Excellent freebage!

Recycling cabinets is the best option for them.

NICE!
My brother just helped me build a shelf system in my garage that is a long low counter. We put on the 8' pre-made laminate counter from Lowe's, and it was a snap. It is very nice to have a real counter in the brewery. I do my starch, ph, and other lab type tests over there during the mash and boil, and can spread out my recipe, books, etc. It's just nice to have. Being able to close the cabinets under it (mine is only open shelves) will be nice so you can store things a little cleaner.

For my brew kitchen in the basement I used my daughters old kitchen cabinets and the old "bar" section from our kitchen counter. Works great and the price was right.
