Before and after....not really groundbreaking. - Joanne - 14-11-2012

Design, supply, install (inc wall tiling), my own work.
Only slight eyebrow raise: - plate rack and wine rack had to be made on site. Doh

Looks like a great job Joanne. Well done.

Did you butt n scribe the tops? Looks like the male goes into the female a long way!

That sounds so wrong but I can't think of any other way of putting it.

Nice Job Joanne: ThumbUp

I'm fitting the same style kitchen this week panelled ivory with walnut butcher block tops

Looks nice and tidy Jo, -
Is there any reason why you didn't start with a full size tile on top of the worktops?
I guess the socket positions, where the kettle and the toaster are, where already there? Looks like about 2" height difference?

Yes I scribed the tops, My jig has the option of deep or shallow male to female. Umm I like to use the deep option...... just preference I suppose.
That to sounds so wrong but true Big Grin

Yes, they always loads better fitted than on plan. Works well with wood (wood lam)worktops.
Thats for the pat. ThumbUp

Existing sockets, as you can see well positioned! Started the tiling as it worked out around the sockets etc the best. (or so I thought at the time!). Found the walls all over the shop as well, maybe should have skimed first.
Tiling not my fav ThumbUp

Good job Joanne!
Neat and tidy produces a good job. You obviously follow that rule.
Looking forward to your next job.

Hi Joanne,
Meant to say "I love the wall tiles". I've said it now!
Going back to the deep butt mitre joint, looks as though' you have set the mle part up to one of the laminate "wood" strips. The wood block tops never look great when butt-mitred do they? Your mitre probably improves on that.
