Kitchen Countertops

Weekend project: Set the Counter-tops

Decided to forge ahead by installing the butcherblock counters. The rough cutting went well I literally burned through the first cuts (dull blade). I made the cuts slowly using C-Clamps and scrape flooring as a guide. I am most concerned with the corner joints. I wish for them to be seamless. I've setup and jig to pull the joints together. The 1/16th gap you see below will become invisible. The counters will be finished with natural oil when the project is complete. By this time next week I hope to have the counters installed.
