I'm here looking for some advice on the overhang of the composed countert top. I also need an 12in overhang that runs longways (the direction of the grain). I only have 8in brackets to support it which lives 4in of overhang that it is not supported. I'm worried if it is going to break since must of the way is going to pulling down from that edge. From the video it doesn't seem that you put any brackets. Is there a reason why? Did you add them later? Thanks for posting this video
you should have secured the butcher block joints with screws via pocket holes. This counter will cup over time without those pocket holes. Also you should 45* your 90*. Should have added supports to the 12” overhang.
They suggest to do the corners the way he did too many variables in the wood cupping, boards not lining up etc. plus you have a lot of expensive waste and if your cut is off just a little bit on the 45 it will look terrible
Beautiful result. the only thing that does not seem right is the end grain showing different where you joined the butcher block. you could get a seamless finish with a 45 degree miter cut , but that would make things more complicated.
Great work. One thing to note when using butcher block for the top: some slabs come with a beveled edge to protect it from chipping. This means if you plan to butt to pieces together perpendicularly (like in this video), you'll need to rip the edge to get a super clean 90 degree edge. It looks like the Williamsburg brand used in this video did not have a beveled edge. Great work, you could barely see the 'seam'.
This guy is really smart, I like how he works through it, sees quite a few steps ahead.
Loving this. I'm thinking about building one in my basement
Loved this...It looks gfreat, I hope you show more of what you're doing on the inside of the Bar. Nice Work Guy's!!!
Great project, too many ideas 💡 thanks ☺️

I was thinking the exact same thing you beat me to the punch though.
How do you line up the wood lines on a 45* cut?
@@andylingle6646 miter and use a biscuit joiner

You can see the ink stamped words on the 2x4s.

I installed a cojntertop in Williams burg Brooklyn today. $1500 for 3 6'x39 slabs. I made $300 installing it after splitting with crew. 6 easy hours.
Inspirational. Hi from 🇮🇪
Joints were not screwed together. And the end should overhang about two inches.
Just fyi....should use a biscuit joiner for the joined edges and run all of the grain in the same direction...it will look a lot better...
How much in material
Why not Krieg jig your joints?
