Moving an Electrical Outlet

We had to move one of our electrical outlets down 2' and under the counter in order to plug in the dishwasher. We read up on it here and it was super easy. The wire came from the basement, so we had enough slack to move the entire assembly down. The only we had to fix up was cosmetic.

I am so amazed at the feats that you two have pulled off -- things I didn't even know were possible, much less as a DIY project. You're an inspiration!
