Every project that my family and I take on we watch your videos. Surprisingly so even when we dont look for your videos. THANKS FOR THE HELP!

@caleriasand8237 6 лет назад

Stunning! I love the reclaimation. So glad you didnt lose that beautiful wood to decay. You make it look easy btw lol

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

@jervislove366 6 лет назад

I've watched everyone of your posts 5 or more times. you helped me so much with this house flip and can't thank you enough.

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

I am humbled and also excited. This is our vision to help people get handy again. Congratulations on the flip!

Thanks Kris. I think I will be doing a lot of this style of work in the near future

@katiresnick9539 3 года назад

In the thumbnail, it's totally finished. That's what I need to see! Do you have any videos of finishing wood like this? All the videos I've watched use epoxy. I don't want to use epoxy. I was hoping to see your bar/table finish.

@hremaddox 6 лет назад

@GageDrums 6 лет назад

I like it! I was a little concerned about those legs being temporary but when you mentioned the metal legs at the end that will be more than enough to support it! Also.. Wouldn't hurt to throw a beautiful bow tie or two into that split!

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

I hear that. We just used a mending plate instead on the underside. Bowties are cool but take a little more time than I had on this one.

@scotth4797 4 года назад

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

yes! remove a wall. Just make sure that you build enough counter space. sometimes a galley functions better than a c shape

@moradal-muhandes4058 5 лет назад

@amidgetonamoped8637 5 лет назад

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Can you show how to cut a live edge slab on a 45 degree angle for say an L-shaped bar top?

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 5 лет назад

simply create a center line and then mark off 45 based on that not the edge. Cheersz!

@yevawang8539 6 лет назад

Great show, and one suggestion is could do one episode for what kind of tool you using, and dig down to detail like how is different toll can make different finish or different range of work. And if you can be like make up youtuber, they always list what kind of tool they use in each episode and always detail to model number.

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

Thanks, I ise a lot of basic tools if I think they need explanation then I will be sure to give it.

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

@michaelkopysh1429 5 лет назад

Awesome. If I had to add a 90 angle to that top, any suggestions? Working with a 12” mitre saw (no slide), a job site table saw, or a circular saw...

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 5 лет назад

buy some better tools like a track saw. Cheers!

@schuttep 3 года назад

So as noted below you said the plugs were an inch and a quarter but you went half to 3/4... what was the diameter of the plugs you are using? I'm trying to do the same thing with an 8' butcher block top.

@VegasJPH 5 лет назад

I like the dowel idea but don't see that longer overhang edge staying put when someone leans on it.

@lindasullivan-wilkins2922 4 года назад

I want to watch the next video that shows how to finish it, but I cannot find it. Can you post the link

@vandoren156 6 лет назад

If you use epoxy you might want to finish the underside too to have it all encapsulated, the slab takes and releases moisture a lot less that way. That would be done before setting the slab in place but it would have taken an extra day. There are a lot of oil finishes that are very effective on bar tops, they leave a more natural feeling to the surface but require a bit more maintenance from the homeowner though. Since a slab like that moves with the seasons maybe making it removable could have been a good idea in case it needs to be reworked. I was told that all those trees would have to be destroyed its nice to see they can be used

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

Good idea, however ijn this country we regulate the temperature and humidity in our conditioned spaces so this kind of chANGE never happens. Cheers!

@jpccola 6 лет назад

Couple of natural hard wood finishes that I like may be an option for tops like this, Rubio Monocoat and OSMO Hardwax Oil. I'm not a big fan of epoxy finishes, over time they have some big drawbacks.

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

Thanks for contributing to the conversation. That is exactly what I was looking for.

@stephenbreazeale8179 6 лет назад

I would have to agree with jpccola, When using a natural edge slab I would prefer a natural looking finish. I have had good success with the Rubio Monocoat as well. It provides a nice satin finish with durability. Rubio was formulated as a floor finish so it is quite durable.

@Hiriatsu 6 лет назад

Love your videos, I have a question though. Wouldn't it be better to offset the holes to make it less likely to tip over?

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

sure. I used legs of course so that solves that problem.

I do woodworking on the side as a hobby and my wife and I just moved into our son's house she wants to redo the kitchen and wants to live Edge slabs 1 7 foot 1 8 foot how would you cut and join a slab. So that you have 26" if your local Mill can only cut 24in maximum?

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 5 лет назад

use a track saw to cut 2 pieces and then pocket screw it together with glue, sand and finish. tada!

@warrenlange6106 5 лет назад

Great videos by the way. Do you have any basement bar plans that you use? Or do you design it as you go? If you have some, I would gladly pay-pal you some money for them. Thanks and Regards, Warren Lange

sorry no plane, just design on the fly to clients needs . Cheers!

@lanceclark3540 4 года назад

Wait sooo the plugs were inch and a quarter aaaand half of that is 3/4?? Am I the only one that caught that?? I’m assuming the plugs were actually inch and a half lol

@jervislove366 6 лет назад

I do have a question about an upcoming project. I have a patio that I will post a picture of that I want to convert into a bathroom. the open area and an outdoor closet with a concrete slab that I think I will have hack hammer out and dig out 2 feet down for the plumbing. I'm just not sure how to attach the subfloor level with the rest of the house and existing crawlspace without damaging the foundation. lol, I have so many questions. I just noticed i can't attach a picture. Google 400 knox ave vine grove ky

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

Call an engineer for structural questions. They are not that expensive. And you have someone to blame if things go wrong.

@cicipine1 5 лет назад

I assume the base of this was a strong base considering the weight of the wood top? If i wanted to do this in my basement what would you suggest i do for a base? I’m an infant when it comes to this stuff so please excuse my inexperience if there is an obvious answer to this. Thanks in advance!!! Love your channel!!

Looks swanky,,thanks for posting! Waiting for the rest of the finish, in due course. :) Must try to adopt this style ..where can you buy such a size of Ash?

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

Local mills and the odd boutique wood shop. Just do a google search for live edge and you will find one.

@NavSrivas 6 лет назад

cheers for the super prompt response mate! will do

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

@jamesbenenati1039 6 лет назад

Maybe I missed it, but you mentions having to wait until the finish was dry before you applied the epoxy top coat, what finish?

We used a filler to eliminate the gaps and cracks.

I subscribed and joined! I can’t find the followup video to this one. Why is that? I’m doing pretty much the same thing except it’s an L shaped live edge counter.

@SummitBidTech 4 года назад

I subscribed and joined ($6.99 US /month) found the link to the finished project video and when I clicked on it, I got an error that the video is private. What a disappointment. The videos are great, but this is the very disappointing. At the end of the video you encourage comments and assure that you read them all. I guess I’m hoping you get to this before I cancel my membership in frustration.

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 4 года назад

Hi Ed, I don't think we have a video on that finish. sorry!

@SummitBidTech 4 года назад

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Bummer, however this video is pretty good as far as an installation process. My project is also a kitchenette style bar top, but will be in an L. At the L origin is a post that I need to cut around. For that I've made a template out of birch plywood. I'm still scratching my head as to whether I'll be able to use your 1x4 template and wooden dowell technique.

It's either laminate tops or a nice stone product used in our kitchens in the UK. Nonetheless this vid is useful for peeps regardless. Thanks.
