QUOTE(maniack @ Mar 6 2018, 11:11 AM) thanks for mentioning this, i've read up from ppl experience doing the assemble on their own and share some of their tips i dont have the tools and i will invest to buy it, the tool cost is 25% of the price they quoted me.. glad to see someone who did the assemble on their own.. i'm quite the handy person as when i enter the house, all the things i install on my own, lamp, ceiling fan, water heater, mirror, and assemble the furniture i think i will go for self installation for better satisfaction for me to do it, i think it will be quite easy (just the time factor) cos i got most of the tools needed for the job. so you gotta research which right tools to get to complete it in short time,. example jigsaw for the cutout of the sink hole, cordless drill etc.
