Default Hanging cabinet help

This may be the silliest TM improvement ever, but I like it.

Our TM has the over-sink hanging cabinet. It can be a pain to hang, because it can be a bit heavy and clumsy, even when empty. And when you raise it to the proper height, you can’t see the mounting brackets, so you are hanging blind. It has to be positioned quite accurately left-right before you lower into the final position, and when I mis-aim a bit, it scratches the wall.

As you can see in the pictures, both the wall half and the original cabinet half (on left) of the bracket pair have vertical sides, so your left-right aim has to be pretty good to get them to mate. What I did was round off the square corners of the cabinet half (on right), so that it would tolerate a bit of left-right error and still mate. It works for me!
