1.3 In the case of a typical two wall fi t, Wood Tops will only contact a wall at its back and one end. Wherever the
Wood Top contacts the wall, the gap should never be greater than 1/8”. If a gap is larger at any point, the Wood Top
must be scribe marked and cut to fi t within tolerance.
On the open end of the Wood Top, it should overhang the end of a cabinet run by 1/2”.
Step 2
Cut Wood Top Blanks to Rough Length
(Two Wall Corner With Open End)
2.1 Measure the length needed to
cover the cabinets and layout the cut
onto a Wood Top blank.
Measuring Length Needed for Finished Tops Accounting for Wall Conditions
Understand how the side wall interacts
with the back wall of the space. If it is
not perpendicular to the back, measure-
ments taken at the front and the back of
the space across the top of the cabinets
will be different. When cutting a Wood
Top to rough length, be sure to add the
“Out of Square” amount to the span and
overhang. This will give the “Wood Top
Largest Dimension” or “Rough Length”.
Wood Top blanks have fi nished ends
on both sides. Confi rm that the layout is
handed correctly, so that the overhang
will have a fi nished end.
