Right on time cause I was planning this year to change my countertop to butcher block

[@SimonSaysDIY]

Perfect! I'm glad it was helpful!

Impressive work especially with the circular saw, bet you get perfect cuts each time.

[@phillyfathead]

Excellent!!! I’m with you, I would b scared to death to cut out the sink 😮😓

[@SimonSaysDIY]

Yeah, I was so nervous even though I checked the measurements 3 or 4 times. 😂

I'm planning on installing a butcher block counter like this one, and I'm trying to determine the best way to make the cut out for the sink. Currently I don't own any Forstner bits, but I'd like to pick one up to cut the corners out of the counter for the sink like you did. What's the easiest way to determine what size Forstner bit I need to ensure the corners of the countertop conform to the corners of the sink?

Great video ill be doing the same in a few weeks. What kind of brackets are those and where can i get them to fasten underneath? Thanks!

[@RyanSchmit-in1xe]

What are the brackets you used to join the 2 pieces?

[@aprilfarrell6409]

What circular bit did you use for the butcher block faucet hole?

[@OldManJenkins23]

They're called forstner bits, very handy for jobs like this or for running plumbing/conduit.

[@SimonSaysDIY]

That’s correct, they will cut a very clean hole without splintering the wood. Thanks!

Pro tip. Use your little kids to help screwing in awkward areas.

[@SimonSaysDIY]

Haha 🤣

Why chisel?
