Thaks nice job like always... You said something about a glue line, it is true sometimes we think that it is tight but not, and when you finish you can see the glue line ... how can it be corrected in some cases, I would like to see a video one day on how to repair it
It is super important to push the piece tight because you can't see the glue line until it's too late. If you get a glue line you are almost better off just cutting off the entire no-drip from that side and start over. Trying to cut a slot down the middle of the line will only work on some colors and patterns.
Maybe one of the best features of solid surface material. Another great job Andy. Some may think that you speed up portions of the video, i've seen you work THAT is how fast you are !
Hi, I'm from Brazil and I don't understand your language, I would like to know what kind of cutter you used to make the first finish at the beginning of the video.
Still enjoying all the videos and thanks for sharing your expertise. I have an upcoming project where I have to install some large full-size solid surface backsplash. What product would you recommend to adhere or the backsplash to the sheet rock That would hold it in place while the silicone dries. Thanks Brian
You can use hot glue and press and hold for 10 seconds. Or, you can put the splash in place and then use super thin crazy glue where the splash meets the top. Push the splash in place, place tip of crazy glue down into corner of splash and top and let the glue wick into the joint. Hold for 20 seconds and it will stay. You should also be able to silicone right over the top of the crazy glue.
Hi Andy! Any chance you could show how to make a cove splash "on a budget"? Using the router table method. That Betterley cove router is a major investment that I'm not able to justify just yet. Any cheaper versions of that you know of? Thanks again for all of your videos, you've been a great help!
Probably not BUT, all you need to do is use a 3/8" radius bit and cut a piece for the cove before you glue it to the countertop. Be very precise when creating the cove insert to reduce sanding.
At the beginning of the video you mention "a 1 inch insert bit" for doing the Rabbet cut, but it is not list in the links. You even refer to it in the comments that there's a link, but there is no Rabbet bit listed. Can you please state what exact Insert Rabbet Bit are you using? I can't find any manufactures selling a Solid Surface rated Rabbet bit. Thanks!
@@AndyGraves Thanks for the reply...when I did residential, we would always template everything and my scribe strip was based on how bad the wall was, now I'm here in Phoenix doing strictly commercial work and I just add a 1/2 inch scribe strip for my installers.
Do you have a link for the jig you used for the bowl cut at the start of the video? I think I've clicked on every link in your discerption and cannot find it.
If you're referring to the stainless steel one, that was cut out using the dimensions provided by the manufacturer. There is a template provided in the box. With these types of sinks, you have to make your own jigs. There are too many sinks to have a jig for each one.
Thanks Andy, love watching your videos. I takes me back to my fab days.
Hi Scott, yep, I'm still working on solid surface material. Glad you like the videos. Thanks for watching.
Your videos are amazing they help me a lot to inprove and work better... thanks for share with us👏👏👏👍👍👍👍💯💯
Thank you so much, I'm glad they help.
Very good man!

I take it it's going in a perfectly square kitchen. Good video
This is a top for a hospital.

You're welcome
Great videos seriously!
Thank you, hope it helped.
Good job, i like your video)
Thank you very much!
Great video. Thanks. Will you have video on the no drip front edge finishing?
Yes, soon. It is being edited and should be out next week.

Exactly, I work super fast. 😂 Thanks for the compliment, much appreciated.
@@AndyGraves may of been your wife who mentioned that......not sure :) Hope your doing well and able to be open.
Before you pulled out that router from outer space I was telling myself, boy, I've got to see this.
And then it was like magic. Those routers are over $1,000 but worth every penny.
Hi, I'm from Brazil and I don't understand your language, I would like to know what kind of cutter you used to make the first finish at the beginning of the video.
Hello, the link is in the description. It's a rabbet router bit.

@@AndyGraves Thanks for getting back. That's ok, I don't blame you. If I had that cove router I'd never look back either. Happy Thanksgiving 🍗🥧😋

Is it a 3/8 or 1/2 cove bit
3/8 radius
What bit are you using for the rabbet?
I cut the rabbet on the CNC so it's just a 1/4" bit but you can use a 1" diameter bit with a straight edge.
Andy, great video, Thanks.....do you add a scribe strip to the cove at all?
Thanks. We add as scribe if it's more than 1/8" out of being straight.
@@AndyGraves Thanks for the reply...when I did residential, we would always template everything and my scribe strip was based on how bad the wall was, now I'm here in Phoenix doing strictly commercial work and I just add a 1/2 inch scribe strip for my installers.
@@russpease5012 We do that as well with commercial. It makes it easy without a template and they always fits with 1/2" scribe
Dose it have joints
Yes, did you watch the video? I will show all the joints and how it's put together.
where to buy cove router
Betterley Router. Buy direct from their website.
Hi Andy, what glue do you use?
Integra, Glue warehouse or Corian adhesive.
Do you have a link for the jig you used for the bowl cut at the start of the video? I think I've clicked on every link in your discerption and cannot find it.

With these types of sinks, you have to make your own jigs. There are too many sinks to have a jig for each one.
@@AndyGraves the Monument jig you used. Thanks for your awesome videos!
Oh that. I don't think that company makes them anymore. Just attach a straight edge to the router base and it will do the same thing.
