- Corian V-Groove an edge with a v-groove machine. This is a step by step instructional video on how to create a v-grooved edge on a Corian solid surface countertop.
Although this method does not work in every situation, it is by far the fastest and best looking edge for a Corian solid surface countertop. Once cut, sanding and finishing the edge is a couple steps rather than many.

Thank you very much!
WOW !!!! Thanks for the video
You're welcome
Great, from VietNam with love!
Thank you so much for the compliment.
Большое спасибо! Хорошая работа
You're welcome
Muito top amigo seus vídeos aprendo muito c vc obrigada...!!
Muchos gracias.
Thank you sir we needed this video lol I’m working on miter for formica silver birch atm.. we use all kinds of solid surface
Of it is poly blend material, you may have to sand the area where you out the tape. I have had issues with the tape not sticking properly on polyester material. Try sanding the area with 220 and do a test. The is special tape you can purchase from All Star Adhesives. It should work though by sanding, cleaning and then apply the tape.
@@AndyGraves ty once again. Big help. I’m over miter edge jobs atm. Since my first post I’ve don’t over 6,000 sqft of miters. But less voids and repairs with these videos
Andy, thank you for taking the time to make your videos. I am a cabinet maker and going to do are 1st solid surface countertop. We have a CNC. My questions are:
1. what program do you use on your CNC?
2. Do you install a full 1” sub-surface for the SS support?
We use AlphaCAM. Yes we use a 1" thick spoilboard but it can be 3/4" thick. Just make sure to surface both sides or air won't stick through the piece for the vacuum holdown.
Nice video! I do the same type of work. I use a mulit-cam 3000 cnc router to cut the slab and a star slg 1000 v groover for the edge or cove back. Our machine applies the tape as it feeds.
By the way, have you had issues with the corian glue not drying thoroughly, or taking forever to do so?
That's a nice setup. Yes we have had issues with cold spots on the Corian adhesive. We always do a small, double bead directly over the top of each other to fix the issue.
Thanks for the bubble tip we have experienced similar issues. Who made and or makes the vgroover you use in the video?
Hello, Thanks. The v-groover is made by Monument Toolworks.
I have had edges that will have long white lines because of the air getting trapped. Once I started forgetting the first run of glue down into the v-groove it's improved 98%. Hope it helps your fabrication.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you
Beautiful work! Can I ask why you don’t v-groove on your CNC while you’re cutting your other operations?
Thank you, we have done it before. Lining up the tape is difficult and it take precise calibration of the CNC so the bit will not cut through the tape.
Speed of having a separate setup and how fast it runs compared to the CNC makes sense but do you have any input on running the miterfold on the CNC instead of the grooving machine? We run quite a bit on the cnc, its slower, but just a single machine.
It's a lot faster with a dedicated machine buy it's also big and in the way when not being used. I have cut v:grooves on the CNC but I have a tough time lining up the tape.
How to make it work at kitchen inside corners ?
You showed the outside one in this video.
Oh no, you really can't v-groove an inside corner because inside corners have to have a radius.
You can use the same tape on the polyester. Just scuff sand it with 150 grit before you clean and apply the tape.
I did not know that. Thank you for the jnformatuon, that is super helpful.
What’s the best glue for gluing Corian to wood vertical onto a wall? Any ideas
Silicone. If you hard seam them together they will expand and contract differently and the seam will crack.
Do you know what glue I can use to adhere Corian to wood vertical onto the wall? There will be no lip for the corian to rest on and elevated.
Use 100% pure silicone.
I love the set up. Where is the machine available? As in, who makes it?
It's a Monument Toolworks but they don't make them anymore.
I'm not using an CNC Machine, using a regular router. What size router bit do I need for the V Groove on 1/2 in Corian
I'm not sure. It would have to be at least 1/2" tall. You can also do this on a table saw.
How far down do you go with the v groove to allow folding of corian please ?
Go down all the way to the tape.
Been looking around the internet before i start testing but using a CNC and a v-groove to do the miter fold, is it possible to do large radius' on a veining material to allow a continuous look? all my math and testing thus far shows on a radius there will always be a small section of the veining missing if you try to v-groove the edge detail beyond the straights to the radius
I can't visualize that being possible there would be a seam somewhere as you transition to the end of the material.
@@AndyGraves im having an issue with the vgroove bit from amana 45726 leaving a 1/16" gap between the miters when perfectly cutting it out so when attempting to do the fold the tape is binding up and not perfectly clamping square do you recommend a different bit for this application or is it common to reapply the tape to adjust the 2 mitered ends
What brand material and what tape are you using?
@@AndyGraves for testing corian glacier white and for now this generic packing tape but saw the 3m one you have a link for on amazon
I don't think it's the bit. Are you counting right down to the tape and then folding it?
Generic packaging tape is flexible and the density of the glue might be pushing the miter apart as you fold it. You must use the expensive 3m tape.
Bonjours vous l'avez trouvé ou votre machine double défonceuse?
I don't understand what you're saying.
Very nice but Wheres the scribe strip?
What do you mean scribe strip? I have not used a scribe strip on an edge before.
The back of the splash.
The way we do solid surface is pretty much bullet proof. Plate all seams use 2.25" wid solid surface on the front 1" plywood strips, underneath and yes we don't do much dull finish solid surface. I can make it shinier than granite. I can see myself with when I'm done.
Oh and we template everything. When we walk in we set it down glue it and seam it if there's a field seam and then walk away.
Can you cut a v groove without a fancy machine.
Sure
