The cabinetry surrounding the built-in double oven, range and range
hood is the first section Norms builds, using some of the
techniques explained in the first two episodes. Norm shows the
location of the dream kitchen, on the footprint of an existing
version built by its owner 30 years earlier. Improvements in
materials and techniques not available in the 1970s will mean
stronger cabinets that are easier to use and maintain, look
attractive over a prolonged lifetime and add considerable value to
the home. Best of all, the new kitchen can be built for a fraction
of the cost of a kitchen built by "professionals." After showing
how to build the carcass for the oven cabinet, Norm adds a storage
organizer for trays and cookie sheets and a large drawer below for
pot lids; he plans two small base cabinets on either side of the
range and two wall hung units to complete the group. Next, he shows
off the details of the prototype inset door and drawer design,
which will be used extensively in this kitchen. At the end of the
episode, he builds a dovetailed drawer box with a plain front. This
drawer design will also be used throughout the dream kitchen. (Part
