This little trick isn't the kind that will help you out every day, but it may be useful some day.

A client found some beautiful "Stove Legs" she wanted to put on her sink base ...

... but she was concerned that it would be hard to clean in the corners behind the legs,
so we used sliding dovetails to make the legs detachable.

The tail pieces were custom shaped to fit inside each leg, and the pin
board was left long enough to allow some adjustment of the leg location.
The pin board was then attached to the underside of the cabinet.

I took a couple of pictures before installing the pins
so you could see how it's going to work.
Place the leg under the cabinet ...

... slide it to the side, and that's it.

Once installed, the client was able to easily remove and replace the feet when cleaning.
