I decided to have a butcher block cover made for my 3 burner cook-top. This will provide me additional work space on the counter top. BTW...I rarely use the propane burners because I have a portable single burner electric induction cook-top.
I placed some small bumper pads on the bottom so the top does not rub the counter.
Pantry upgrades should be completed next week. I have removed all shelves, plastic tracks, door hinges and the door. A sliding system is being constructed with five shelves. The front door and all shelves will pull straight out when done.
