    OMG. I have the exact same island but I built it using the bigger shelf. I love how yours comes apart and can be used separately. I'm starting to think I wanna demolish mine and build it again but like yours. 😂

    This would be a great breakfast bar for a1 room studio or a dorm. Put 2 or 3 bar stools n front of cart and you have a dining and breakfast table. Just park barcart n front of kitchen counter with sink and stove, to b able to walk between barcart and sink so you can turn around and chop up food and place food from stove and sink on to table while people on the other side, sitting on bar stools will be seeing the kitchen and you using refrigerator, stove and sink as you r washing food off and preparing meals and turning around to serve them sitting on the other side of the breakfast bar you made.

    • @Craftydust
      @Craftydust  3 роки тому +1

      It holds great, most of the work is done by the wheel stoppers to be honest, the magnets are there to keep it aligned and once heavy items are placed on the island it's even more stable
