Step 1: Measuring and Cutting
Measure the dimensions of your cabinets and mark the butcher block accordingly. Use a saw to cut the butcher block to the correct size. Make sure the edges are straight and smooth.
Step 2: Sanding and Sealing
Use sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges or surfaces on the butcher block. Apply a coat of wood glue on the edges and seams to secure them. Allow it to dry completely. Sand the surface again to achieve a smooth finish.
Step 3: Installing the Countertop
Place the butcher block on top of the cabinets and align it properly. Use clamps to secure the countertop in place. Use a router to create a smooth edge along the sides if needed. Secure the countertop to the cabinets with screws from underneath.
Step 4: Finishing Touches
Apply mineral oil to the butcher block surface using a paintbrush. This will help protect the wood and give it a beautiful sheen. Allow the oil to penetrate the wood and wipe off any excess. Wear protective gloves during this step.
