Dumbwaiter is In

May 2009: The first step in the dumbwaiter installation is constructing the shaft.

The next two photos show the dumbwaiter opening on the second floor at the formal dining room.

The next three pictures show the opening in the pantry on the first floor. The finished pictures show the car in place with two shelves.

These last three pictures show the finished installation with the exception of the doors which will be installed soon. The last picture is the upstairs opening.

We went with the rope and pully system instead of a motorized system to save money (less than half the price) and of course to stay with our green theme. Stay tuned, more pix coming...
