In reply to your suggestion, I did that in my own cabinets because I once had a leaking elbow under my kitchen sink and learned what damage it can do if not noticed. I have new cabinets now, and decided then to install ceramic tiles using thin set which I had learned to do by setting my own bath walls and counter ceramic tiles. It is easy to do as you say, and it is rather fun too. *seattle* Audrey friend of pwp aussie John 49/42/38?? ----- Original Message ----- From: " KEn Becker" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, July 21, 2000 8:31 PM Subject: Re: -Non-PD - Heads UP!
