[@Anikasdiylife]

Thank you so much!

[@asherkhan115]

Fairly straightforward for a newbie like myself to follow. I need the countertop for our laundry room as well. Will give it a shot...thank you

[@Anikasdiylife]

You’ve got this!

[@sannevermeulen2547]

This was super helpful, especially on how to do the side support! Look forward giving it a go.

[@Anikasdiylife]

Glad it was helpful!

My wife will love having such a great counter top. Appreciate you sharing this video and your experience.

[@Anikasdiylife]

You bet!

[@heavencarlson]

What a fabulous video! I knew it wasnt too hard to build a countertop but after watching you, I feel way more confident.in the process! Thank you soooo much.

[@Anikasdiylife]

You are so welcome! You got this!!

[@keerthikumar2023]

Amazing tutorial. This is exactly what I was looking for too. In my case too i need a side support on the right side and can do cleats in the left and back. I don’t have the tools or time to do this but I’ll send this video to carpenter and see how it goes. Thank you!

[@SteveH-TN]

I just discovered your channel today and have learned several useful lessons.

[@joanjetta6609]

[@mikez123]

Great video. I am going to do this.

[@Anikasdiylife]

Have fun!

[@auntmaryspals7978]

Love it. It was smart not to attach the top in case you needed to get in there and repair something. We all know that happens, don't we?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Yup!! More often than we like!

[@silviacrespo8935]

Hola! Love everything you make. ❤️ what can I use if I don’ have an electric nail gun. Can I just buy the nails and used the hammer?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Yes. Totally. Or you can get “trim head screws” that you cab drive in with a power drill. And their heads are just a tad bigger than nails.

[@mitchmiller3241]

Doesn’t the front edge of your side wall move because it’s not attached to anything? Im just thinking the rear brace you made wouldn’t be sufficient to keep the front of the wall stable. Thanks for the tutorial, I’ll be installing the same configuration this next week.

[@graciealeshire5528]

Great! Can you make a wooden top for a three burner gas stove for an rv?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Yes!! It would basically work the same way except you would need to cut out for the stove.

[@ricmilkyt]

Beautiful countertop and great video! Please do you have an estimation of material cost for this project?

[@tobequitefranco]

Looks great. How much weight do you think it would be able to support?

[@nikzabaljac1148]

Love it well done - I just can’t seem to wrap my Mind around - once the countertop is in how do you attach the dryer hose to the exhaust !?

[@Anikasdiylife]

You attach the washer and dryer before you install the countertop. The countertop is not permanently attached. It is simply resting on all of the supports. This way you can also pull it out if you need to change something or fix something.

[@nikzabaljac1148]

Amazing great video thank you for the reply

[@yaowsers77]

Is that 3/4" plywood? What material?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Yea. It is 3/4” birch plywood

[@davidaubuchon]

Does edge tape accept a mineral oil and beeswax finish?

[@brycerollins9496]

Can you stain the wide edge banding with the same stain as the plywood? Can you use a water based stain on it?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Yes. You can stain but I have only tried with oil based stain. You should test the water based stain before using it.

[@paultaylorbikes]

Nice!

[@Anikasdiylife]

Thanks!

[@MadelineMizo]

What is the plywood you used?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Its Grade A Birch plywood 😀

[@Thejoyfamily132]

Is that a water prof?

[@Anikasdiylife]

Yes it is!

[@jennifers.7011]

Hi can you tell me what finished you used? I made a similar one but the stain is coming off did you use a poly finish? Don’t want it to be a fire hazard either with the dryer. Thanks!

[@Anikasdiylife]

try the Total Boat Halcyon finish, it's linked in the description :D

[@Anikasdiylife]

Total Boat Halcyon finish, try that!

[@jennifers.7011]

Thanks so much!

[@claudiamarina8079]

[@Anikasdiylife]
