Solid Surface Renos 5


The first few seams. Notice the clamp, spray can and measuring tape--those are strategically placed as weights to make the seams level.


Checking the size so far with my cardboard template.


A mirror seam in progress. The straight router bit takes a sixteenth off of each side, leaving a perfect seam even if my straightedge isn't perfect (it's a little warped).


The main countertop, all one piece now.


I had to cut a big piece off one end to fit the whole top in the elevator; it would be seamed back together in my kitchen. It hurt to cut it apart though! I also cut my sink hole using a plywood template that I drew out using the actual sink basins as a guide.
