BUILDING CUSTOM SHOP COUNTERS FOR THE RETAIL STORE! | HOW TO

[@diyhuntress]

Hey friends! Sorry for the loud music/audio at the end of the video - not sure what happened! If you couldn't catch what was being said, I was just being mushy and talking about how rad it's been to help make my other half's dreams come true in this retail space. Was also saying thanks for being part of this journey with me! Much love to all of you! 💕

[@Granatenstressbanane]

Wow it looks perfect in the space, you can be incredibly proud of yourself!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@BiologieMe]

That's incredible! How special that you helped in making your other half's vision become reality. It looks amazing. I can see why you'd be so nervous about the process of cutting those live edge slabs, it would have made me grit my teeth. They turned out so gorgeous!

[@diyhuntress]

Ahhh! Thank you!

[@kathrynmccarthy]

Wow, I look at this and think "Dreams really do come true." Makes me hopeful for my own dreams. Great job on the shop counters Sam! I'm looking forward to seeing the full reveal.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! You’ve got this! 🙌🏼

[@drunkenhobgoblin417]

I used to own a brick and mortar bike shop. This is going to be a sweet shop! Great job on the counters.

[@Dualex_Builds]

This came out amazing! Great job on this massive project

[@kotadawndragon]

Wow! Those countertops are absolutely gorgeous! They go so nicely with the cabinets underneath.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@JackKirbyFan]

Hey Sam, first, please wear more PPE when you're handling circular saws and so on. I get it. It's not always comfortable and another thing you have to wear but please protect your lungs. Second, tell me more about that caulk epoxy. That could be a huge time saver for me. Finally (as if that's not enough) how did you plug up the caulk to prevent it drying out? Thanks! As always that was fun to watch. Lots of work to do of course!

[@jessicahites871]

These cabinets look ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I never knew I could fall in love with a furniture piece💖 Absolutely stunning job Sam!!

[@anthonys_speaks4643]

Beautiful work! Do you have the plans or link to plans?

[@hansdegroot8549]

I didn't have time to watch any YT videos this week (not even yours) but I want to wish you a Merry Christmas. Thanks for showing and teaching us so much.

[@nikkiep23]

[@JunkShackBaby]

[@megaamold9597]

These countertops are AMAZING! I love how excited you are to help your other half fulfill his dream, I can imagine he’s given you the same support for the channel. Mutual power couple 💃🏻🕺🏻 Can’t wait to see the finished shop, it looks so sick already!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much for all the love! Can’t wait to share!

[@Dragon-Slay3r]

Don't know about mutual power.

[@nilakshiroy6]

Eagerly waiting for the reveal! Such wonderful work you do!

[@diyhuntress]

Ahhh! Hopefully soon! Thank you!

[@pteddie6965]

I really enjoy your videos and your enthusiasm.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@santiagorodriguez-do5yv]

How much did the supplies cost?

[@kz.irudimen]

Badass build, I bet you're both over the moon with it :) GL with the shop :)

[@diyhuntress]

Thank youuu!

[@erinmoore9681]

New Sub here, as a designer, I will offer a bit of retail advice. ADA code restricts the height of counters used for Point of Sale to no higher than 36”. In NY, I typically hold the height to 35” to easily pass inspection. I didn’t catch you mention if this counter/display case will be the front counter/cashier or not. If not, you’re good. If so maybe you can just shorten it down at the bottom. I am really enjoying your content. I’ll be binging your vids while you’re taking some time off for the holidays. I’m excited for more DIY, welding and fabricating fun. Good luck to your partner on his new retail business, very exciting!

[@TerrellMaynard-ze9ft]

What CAD Program did you use for the reminder?

[@dianahenderson]

Beautiful work...that is going to be a gorgeous bike shop!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! So stoked!

[@ChasingTheAdventureOutdoors]

Those are sickkkk

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! 🙌🏼

[@MacT4972]

AMAZING work, Sam! You should be so proud! I’d like to see your other half’s reaction. 😀

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! He wasn’t too surprised because he helped with installation. But, I’ll make sure to sneak in a cute shot of how he looks at his new store everyday. 😍

[@GianniCongedi]

Hello! Could you tell me what kind of wood and which dimension is the section of the lumber used in the frame?

[@tempchannel3885]

WOW!!!!! Beautiful!!!! I want to build one now. Subbed

[@ArtisTmoney]

Hey this channel is great! did the material list come out yet?

[@jean-marclariviere7618]

You did great...as always...other half must be so happy.....

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! He is!

[@lisakleinfeldt4711]

Hello! Where can I find the plans for the retail counter?

[@christinep58]

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@diyhuntress]

[@robertogomez3698]

The builds came out nice. Way to go on overcoming your challenges. Keep pressing forward. 👍

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@silverhogg7385]

Do you have the steps, materials and parts list available? I would really like to dimensions to this im looking to do this in a BUS for retail space

[@MicheauxWorld]

Hello are you selling the list of materials and steps to make this counter top? I would like to have this made for my store… Thanks in advance

[@ManishKumar-qn3ft]

which Pocket Hole Drill jig do you use?

[@AGutierrez.longislandre]

Where did you get the Faux Brick?

[@bradleythompson5073]

Is the ryobi pillar drill any good?

[@Maddgame03]

What size are the smaller lumber

[@tonybrooks3411]

Do you have the link for the counter diagram please

[@yunglynda1326]

Amazing work!!!! I wanna build stuff!!

[@pman2916]

Did much of the eboxy drip down the sides? Looks amazing!!

[@diyhuntress]

I actually brushed it away as it dripped!

[@lulypintor]

Awwww you're like a DIY fairyyy!!! ✨😃✨ I hadn't noticed you were little! I just noticed it in Danie's video and now here! 😄 btw. I'm a shortie too!

[@diyhuntress]

Shorties for the win! 🙌🏼

[@boxoffisa]

Have watched other videos. But going out. Let me subscribe. Will come back later and watch others. Nice contents.

[@HyperactiveNeuron]

Honestly if I could I would patronize your husband's shop. This is a great build and design. I love it. You should be proud. This is along the same lines as a local shop... Except they have beer on tap lol

[@JuanGarcia-n5d]

I don’t see the printable plans on your website?

[@Hazel_256]

Why didn't you just put finishing trim on the front versus wasting an entire sheet of wood? Also, was there a reason for not inserting the glass in the one with pre-cut vs the on without?

[@EdwardIglesias]

Really awesome project. Everything looks very high end and custom. I am most impressed my your clean cuts. I was working on a project recently with a saw that did not go all the way through and I had to flip the wood over and saw again from the other side. Let's just say my results wern't as good as yours.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! It’s tricky, for sure!

[@djmad311]

Nice build! One question: I have not seen this in the video but did you seal in any way the underside of the slab? If not are you not concerned it will absorbed different amount of moisture (top vs. bottom) resulting in a cupping or bowing?!

[@diyhuntress]

Hi! I forgot to add that - but, I added some furniture butter to the bottom. This slab is so thick that it probably didn’t need that. But, I always well both sides, just in case!

[@GIboy1990]

You never did drop those dimensions, did you?

[@luuthaotv5855]

wonderful

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@mbarkanbir7586]

Can you please make one restaurants countertop from kallax or something what already exit?if you do please tag me.

[@diyhuntress]

Ahh! I haven’t see this around yet, but sounds like a great idea!

[@nessin8or394]

Looks amazing! Couldn’t hear what you were saying at the end though.

[@diyhuntress]

Ughh. I know! I don’t know what happened. It sounded okay when I edited it. 😩

[@jabocat]

Where are the plans for this build????

[@ktsndog]

I love sour cabbage patch kids!

[@richardbenson4750]

For a square end why not just use a circular saw and a speed square? Your trick will work but you'll have to include some "extra" that you'll cut off.

[@diyhuntress]

Either way I had to create a perfect straight edge on each side before cutting the miter from that reference. Square could work, but it’s a very wide piece. Grateful for my track saw!

[@890luxor]

How long did this take?? You nails changed quite a few times through the video

[@SacRoyalDetail]

❤❤❤❤

[@KittyKatOK]

Looks beautiful, but I couldn't hear you over the music.

[@diyhuntress]

Really hard to hear you during the last part of the video. Too heavy on the background music.
