Microwave shelf

Hi all,

I finally getting around to buying a microwave for the TM and since I'll have the microwave, I'm thinking I need to have something for it to sit on. Has anyone made their own shelf for a microwave or does everyone that has a microwave also have the TM microwave shelf?

How snugly does the TM shelf fit between the upper countertop and the wardrobe? Since the electrical outlet is on the side of the upper counter, how does one get the power cord from the microwave into that outlet?

Help !
