I love mixing cabinet colors and top styles within a kitchen. I'm glad it's become trendy because 5 years ago, it was almost unheard of.

Yeah, I'm proud of what she (my wife) has done here. I wish like heck you could see it, all the way to the media room. One day my dumb-ass will learn to post pictures. I know it's not hard, I've just never actually taken the time to learn. :shake:

Heh. I don't know about "master". That pole is the first and only one of its kind. The top is my first try. Maybe I'll be a master one day. I guess the only part I have mastered is not being afraid of trying new and different stuff.

Define "a lot of money."

Heh. A lot more than what I'm able to make locally. When I'm away, my crews don't get as much done so there are more considerations than when I was a one-man shop.

One of my brothers lives up there and is remodeling. This isn't for me.

Fair enough.

Oh, Okay. I was scratching my head knowing you lived in Denver or the near-abouts.

We're spreading out, in order to make the assimilation easier, k?

Pole wrap technique? I've very curious, and I say that in the least gay possible way. You didn't inlay all those little pieces?

Whatever you did, it looks good.

I'm kind of the black sheep, so please keep that a secret, too.

I'm not sure I follow the question.

Yeah, I put all those pieces on the pole and then grouted it. It's pretty challenging.

Funny story, I had incentive to have that done by last Thanksgiving. So I was up at 5:00 AM grouting the thing when my MIL comes down for coffee while I'm stroking the pole. Heh. She got a kick out that.
