In furtherance of my previous post, and depending upon if the cabinets were custom or prefabbed boxes, and also adjusting for the proposed counter top, a level line was struck in excess of 18" below the 54" cleat, adjusted for the counter as well as 5/8" CDX rough-top, but never less than the 18".I got another corner base cabinet in today.

This shot is really distorted. The uppers look huge.

I was trying to figure out what it means when they say the base cabinets have to be level. How level? I put a level on our kitchen counter that was installed by a pro and the bubble was right up against the line. I put my 8’ level across mine and it looks like this. Level is blue.

I should have bought stock in the supplier of cedar shims.
My installations were dead level, side to side, front to back, no call-backs.
All of my carpenter levels had center vials with 4 graduations, the same as a common plumbers torpedo level, which depicts 1/4" fall, required for standard drain slope, which can be reduced to 1/8" by increasing the pipe dia.
