Time to tackle the large L-shaped main countertop!
I wanted to build in the basement but I was concerned with whether we could get the beats up the stairs!
So, we built a full size piece out of scrap plywood and carried it up twice!
Tight but it works!
| So we measured and cut the underlayment . . . |
| . . . and connected them with a "gusset" |
| Used Dewalt Biscuit cutter to create new groove for end (the board ended with a tongue - Murphy's law!) |
| Here is layup of first course of flooring. Corner will be a herringbone pattern. |
| The overlapping flooring from the sink side will give strength to the join and ultimately we will not need the gusset. |
Next - more coarses of flooring.
There are 8 coarses total and I will make a few posts to show progress.
