Ain't standardization wonderful!

Our under-the-cupboard mounted microwave has been erratic for some time. It either flashes or the turntable stops and starts. Today, we bought a replacement.

But it won't be a simple replacement. We called our favorite appliance store, Daugherty's, to check on a replacement. The only under-the-cupboard microwave they have has mounting screws at least an inch closer (side-to-side) than our older one. This means we have to drill at least one new pair of holes. That also means that are going to recut our spacer, the one that went over the brackets so we could slide dishes in and out without their getting caught on the brackets.

All that is a job for tomorrow!
