Another question for you all :)
Here is a poor picture of one of our worktops. Just where it starts to go dark is empty space underneath. It is about 85cm to the floor.
This is a rough drawing of what it looked like before - Worktop at top. Dishwasher on left and the support is a piece of wood next to it that is attached to the wall and the underside of the worktop.
What I wnat to do now is, instead of having a piece of wood, I want a nice metal bar holding it up (this is so i can get access easier to what is on the RIGHT hand side of where the wood was (the water supply mains tap)
So my plan was to buy a piece of metal tubing (note, if need to be i can put on 2 tubes - one at front and one at back - but i can NOT put one to the left of the dishwaser as it needs to be empty there for reasons i won't go into.)
So I went to B&Q and bought what turns out to be a piece of railing tube (annoyingly they have a chunky breakfast bar leg but it is slightly too long to fit underneath our worktop).
I also bought some of these.
Couple of issues.
1) Is there anything I can put on the other end of the tube - on the floor end? I need somethign flat and smooth so I can slide it in and also so its not digging into the floor - esseianlly I need something like in the picture above but has no hole in it and will nicely sit on the floor and act like a shoe to the tube. Even better woudl be to have them on either side so the tube it just being else in place by them2) What is the best way to ensure I have the currect length cut tubing and to get it under the worktop? obviously it will have to be exatly length and there will be a lot of resistance in trying to get it in as I will have to squeeze it in.
Hope that all makes sense!!
