Hey Johnny. Dude, I love your channel and I love your projects because you’re the most realistic and practical DYIer. Other guys with a dyi channel are using these machines that cost thousands of dollars and they need a huge studio to house them and/ or make these crazy modifications and use techniques that trained carpenters have a hard time perfecting. Your projects are always fantastic, actually doable for a novice or pro DYIer. I hope you and your family are well during these crazy times. Going to try this project myself as I want to make my own garage bar... maybe an idea for a future video ? Thanks a lot Jonny.
No links to tools and items used?
Just so you know you did the auto that wrong. That auto vent needs to be as high as possible to be functional. Pretty kick ass countertop I really like it. I might consider this for my bar. Cheers brother.
If you don't have a GFCI at the panel you might wanna change that outlet to a GFCI. Might be code. Lol not an electrician here
Nice job with the laminate sir! Another old trick and alternative to the dowels or extension cords to keep the glued laminate from touching the glued plywood top is to use old metal or plastic Venetian blinds strips. They stack easily in the tool chest and can be re-used for years. Cheers!
I bet you watched ask this old house
Won't the ply warp after a while ?.
you probably shouldn't have trusted only caulk and tile to protect that untreated wood edge, water finds it way into every little crack over time and it would suck to have to scrap the entire counter top because part of it started to expand
