I just had to comment about the issue of lying across the edge of the cabinet. It is horrible, terrible way to work. I had to replace drain cocks in three laboratories shortly after moving into our house (built in 1998). I built a platform out of scrap wood that is exactly the same height as the edge of the cabinet opening. I think this is kind of a standard height for many cabinets. The first time I got under the sink laying on my platform, I was in plumber's heaven. I could work relatively comfortably and I had room to reposition myself easily. I also used an LED headlamp to be able to see. I wish I had built this platform years ago. As much as I hate plumbing, it's one job that just won't go away.

Subject: [DIY] Kitchen Faucet Replacement
Hi All,
The kitchen faucet was in bad need of being replaced, but I had been avoiding it since I don't relish working under the sink amidst the tangle of pipes, with my back jammed on top of the hard-edged toe kick.
