"Today we are doing a custom bar support install. On this one we are using this chrome steel, like the kind you would see in the department store. But first, we want to put it up to the bar where it’s going and get the centering right. So we just have to trim off the trim on one end. And then, probably hold that up there with one hand, and probably mark the end where the supports are going to be located at. Once we get the ends marked, we’re going to take a bracket and measure over from the end, the same amount on the cabinet part, and install the bracket to hold up the….support itself. You want to install some temporary brackets to hold the bottom towards the bar until you get it all leveled. And once it’s leveled, then you can screw in the bottom. "
