To accomodate the seat, we'll have to have the radiator replaced with a lower model. This is possible, right? Who would handle such a job? (I'm not going to need to take out a second mortgage for it, am I?)   algebra2 Citizen Username: Algebra2 Post Number: 1647 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Monday, February 23, 2004 - 4:46 pm:        matthew at Mapleworks ... matthew@maplewoodworks.com he may be ableto do the built-in/window seat/shelving once you find and install the radiator.   jgberkeley Supporter Username: Jgberkeley Post Number: 3483 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Monday, February 23, 2004 - 5:16 pm:        Your first step is to find the replacement unit. I suggest that you go to the metal scrap yard on Morris Ave, at Burnett and find one that will fit the new space. Then undo your old one and slide in the replacement unit. It is almost that simple, other than some grunt work and heavy lifting. Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark; professionals built the Titanic.
