Check again.  All the ones that I ever saw wern't one piece.  The top part I.E. 
thee sink is cast iron covered with porcelain and should lift off the metal 
cabinet once you disconnect the drain and supply lines.  If it doesn't lift off 
check to see if there are any clips that have to be removed that are used to 
hold the top to the cabinet.

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Replacing Kitchen Sink


  I would like to replace my kitchen sink which is made of porcelain and is 
badly nicked, with a stainless steel one. The only problem is that the sink, 
draining board and base cabinet are one solid metal unit, the type out of the 
early 40's or 50's.

  My feelings wouldn't be hurt if I end up wrecking the whole unit, as it's 
badly rusted. The only catch is that the it seems to be part of the rest of the 
under cabinets as well, all along the wall.

  Suppose I should just hit the sink with a sledge hammer? I have a heavy-duty 
recopacating saw that I suppose I could use to cut away. That way I could 
separate the bad part from the good part, that I want to leave.

  'Just wondering if anyone else has ever messed with metal kitchen cabinets in 
the past. Thanks
