That would be the water line for the pot filler..... so they don't have to carry a pot with water from the sink to the stove..... I have done them in five kitchens and only one of those clients can really cook! She is actually pretty well known in culinary circles from what I hear. The rest of them usually just make reservations.....

Pot fillers are getting more popular recently....seems like most plumbers aren't sure of the correct height...we give them specs but they don't read them. "Farmer Sinks" are another thing customers are choosing lately. You can see the pot filler faucet above the cooktop in this picture. They usually have two levers to prevent accidentally getting water on the cooktop.

Ross..I know you are very familiar with these. I quoted your post to answer Beetles question.

having all those outlets on the back wall makes me shake my head. I like the clean looks. Should have installed a electrical
strip underneath the cabinets.

I like how you guys notice all the details.
When I started installing the cabinets and saw all the extra outlets I assumed that the customer had asked the electrician to install them.
They didn't!

I have nicknames for all the subcontractors....I call the electricians the "Keystone Cops"

having done custom homes for years with my dad you learn a thing or two along the way. Swap out the single gang outlet and put in 2 dbl gang outlets.

It's hard to overcome the fear of such heights, it is not irrational, you fall you die, or you are very seriously hurt.

Framing condos on the cape, while i was still in my teens, my redneck boss noticed that I was pretty agile and not too afraid of heights so he assigned me the job of unhooking the roof trusses from the crane hook while perched on the top of the previous truss. Guys started calling me spiderman.

A few years later I was injured in a staging collapse that fractured my hip and almost got me killed. After I healed I went right back to work doing the same job. No regrets but glad I made the transition over to being a finish carpenter.
