Are you handy at all? IKEA is very easy to cut/customize and they have all the filler panels to fill gaps

Will probably go there this weekend and see what I can do!

Thanks for the suggestion!

The only thing you can’t really do is trim the width. So you will have to go in with your absolute widest measurement possible and then consider the hinge swing

Everything else like depth and even height you can trim as needed. A table saw is nice to have though

The width is fine, its just the height since the set up is at a weird height off the ground...

I am assuming you are talking about the SEKTION system? Essentially want two slider doors so hinge won't really matter. After looking it seems like I just really need two rails and the drawers and then just trip the top excess frame?

Now I need to make space so I can install it, lol.

GFCI compatible. Why would it not be?

There is a big ass fire on cambie. RIP Copa Cafe!

^^^ oh shit wtf, a cousin of mine and I would go there

anyone know where there are free coin counters now? I know that you used to be able to do it at the casinos but they are closed now.

I think they have them in all superstores

Not sure if they still do, I don't normally shop at superstore, but I do recall seeing them in the Coquitlam n maple ridge locations

Haven't been there in a while, but VanCity Credit Union in Coquitlam (French Quarter - Meredville........ I mean Maillardville). Actually, I've seen them at other branches, too.

Call around to banks as some have the coin counters

FWIW, the Marine Drive Superstore machine was either out of order or not accepting coins because of Covid. I believe there was a charge to use it though.

^ all machines take a cut or percentage. Obvious question ... why don't you just roll it yourself? Is it that much effort?

Ah brings back memories, a long time ago I used the coin machine at the TD Bank across from Oakridge, not sure if it's still there.
Over the years I had been randomly plunking my change into one of those big ass Coca-Cola plastic bottles I got from Vegas until it got so full it started to crack. I had to triple garbage bag it and lug it there. I think I cashed out like almost $2k

Can you measure the dimensions of it after you get it? Tks

Without shelves, it's 3-1/4 wide by 5-1/2 tall by just under 2 inches from the wall. I'm an old school, SAE kind of guy. Don't ask for metric measurements.

The shelves are optional. The shorter shelf is 8 inches, while the longer one is 10 inches.

The shelves are offset. The top, shorter one is 2-1/2 inches off to the left. The bottom shelf is 1-1/2 inches off to the left. You can extrapolate the right side from all that. Correction. See update below.

There are slots on both sides of the shelves to accommodate wires for smartphones 2 total on each shelf. The night light is handy. It doesn't have a motion sensor or a timer.

Also, if the electrician somehow installed the plugs the wrong way, the thing can be installed upside down.

I'm happy with it. The whole thing is anchored via one receptacle, so it's not that sturdy, but the two USB ports, night light and extra plugs make this thing functional. If they somehow made it so you could screw in onto the centre plate screw, it would be perfect.

I checked the second one I purchased but haven't installed yet and it doesn't look like it can be permanent mounted. I also forgot, GFIC plugs don't have a centre screw. Two screws and they don't line up with anything on this thing.

Hope this helps...........


EDIT:
One week later, lol, I find out both shelves are adjustable (left to right). Out of the packaging, the bottom shelf is off to the right, so I just thought that's the way it was designed. I noticed these tabs on the shelf, so tried to lift it. That's when the shelf moved. Yeah, pays to read the instructions........

Anyone hire a moving company recently and can chime in on approx. costs?

The story that made me crack up was the one about the fucktards who harassed people on the ferry. They were on their way to the protest rally in Vancouver. BC Ferries banned them from riding the ferries. Not sure how they're going to get home, lol.

Fucking idiots. I watched it on the news. They were harassing, mask wearing passengers. BC Ferries only banned them for 1 day. Should've been 1 year.

Any CUPE union experts here?

I have been working at CoV for the past 2 years and currently a CUPE 15 member. I have a few questions about a potential switch in working to working in the District of North Vancouver (CUPE 389)

1. Will my CUPE membership and seniority roll over to the new CUPE XXX union? Or will have to go through another probation period?

2. In the hiring process, will I be given the CUPE 'benefits' of having higher priority in the selection process? Or, do they only consider Union members in their local?

probably would have to charter individual sea plane rides if it was a long term ban...

No, ban them from public healthcare for 2 weeks after the event. If u catch Covid, you're on your own ... dumbasses.

The ones at VanCity Credit Unions are free. I don’t even think you even have to be a member. The casino ones are definitely not free. They charge you a hefty fee.

They require passengers to wear a mask ...

Far from an expert but I am CUPE.
The only thing that will roll over is your pension since its through the BC Municipal Pension Plan. You'll still have a probation period etc since its a new employer. You may have a very slight upper hand as a current CUPE member but that benefit is only useful if you nail the interview.
