We bought a four storey solicitor's office ten years ago and had a lot of work done to turn it into a home again. Part of those works involved demolishing a 900 square foot extension, that was built in the 1930s, to reclaim some space for the garden. We had the compartment in the picture above built to encompass the remains of what was an internal fireplace so that it could house our Argentinian BBQ and take fumes up the chimney flue via the hole in the top right hand corner of the picture. When we came to replace the Argentinian BBQ with KKs our choice of KKs was defined by these two walls. We could either fit two 23s or a 23 and a 21 or a 32 and a 16. I went for the 23 and 21 and am very happy with that choice. On reflection I realise that we did not have to be bounded by these two walls. We had lived through a major demolition and rebuild but couldn't imagine our way to thinking about moving these two walls. A lesson for others. Our excuse would have been that we had no idea how much we would love our KKs. That is not an excuse if you read this forum. You WILL love your KK. You WILL likely want more than one and you should let your imagination run wild. Even if you don't buy them all at once assume you will be hooked and plan for that eventuality. We are coming to the end of our ODK remodelling here. Nothing major but it has been fun. More pics soon.
