Do you know when you'll be able to create and post your next video on how to create the island base. We are planning to install an ikea sektion island and would like to use your base setup. Thanks for the informative videos.

Thanks! I try my best. Check out the drawings on my blog - I tried to be comprehensive. I know the next installment is due - hard to find the time to record good videos, lol. Hopefully within the next 2 weeks. You will not believe how liberating it is to have that base - precise visualization of the location, U get what U see - super easy to level - works on any surface - super solid too.

Can you make a 5' x 8' custom base for Axstad and paint match it to the Axstad grey? In the GTA

Hi Karol, done mine in 5/8 cause this is what I got at home, I've done an 4 x 10 feet island on 2 box drill together. Do you think it will be strong enough to support de 800 lbs quartz countertops? Or should I drill another 3/8 on the the exterior box to make it 1 inch think ?

I literally 'WRESTLE' with my island installation after I am done - it should feel rigid and inspire confidence. I have a blog entry with detailed drawings on my blog - that is a great guide to follow. I like 3/4" thickness because it allows you you use no.8 woodworking screws [but I always use glue and pin nail/staples] - BUT if you stuck to the dimensions I've provided for the basic build it will be OK. There is lots of 'sheer loads' on the top of the cabinet assembly when you slide the stone across - that's one thing I always pay attention to [hence 'wrestling' - mimics the slab being slid across]

would you say it's possible to do a concrete countertop on top of secktion? if do you want to throw something up on the next video. much abliged!

@kingkosnik 7 лет назад

Yea! Totally! I love working with concrete - I have done some cantilevered seating - you can do some pretty crazy geometry ON TOP of having fun with inclusions [my cousin is a NYC engineer - digs up /fixes infrastructure, stuff he finds! historic pieces/glass - vintage, historic NYC, right in your kitchen countertop]

Great video Karol! For the sink box, my question is how do you accommodate the sink box drawer and plumbing? If you are building a base, that's say 3.5", that leaves very little space(~3"=24" box - 17.5" drawer - 3.5 wide base) between the sink drawer. I was hoping to line the pipes about an inch away from the back wall of the box. Thoughts welcome.
