Popular Post Shaun Guthrie Posted August 28, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 I finally delivered this beast of a island countertop and I have to thank many members of WoodTalk Forum for helping me out with some suggestions on construction and finish. This definitely stretched my capabilities with it's sheer size however in the end the client loved it and that's what matters for the most part. Details: 5'x7' 6/4 Walnut 9 planks in total Wood was left somewhat raw as per client request. Can visually see the resaw marks and other rough characteristics Finished with General Finishes High performance Topcoat Satin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Looks great. The rough texture adds to it nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhighlander Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Shaun, I know you agonized over the rough surfaced top, but I have to say, it does look good! Must have taken a herculean effort to put it in place, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think through the project it actually grew on me and was really waiting for the install pics to see the real beauty of it. I had my father in-law assist me so I'll owe him a few beers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
