Scribe Cut the Wood Top to Fit the Wall Condition
(Two Wall Corner With Open End)
4.1 Remove the Wood Top from its
position on the cabinet and transfer it to a
bench or other surface that will support it
while being cut.
4.2
Cut along the outside of the Wood Top scribe line
with a circular saw held at a slight angle.
This will keep the saw base from marring the fi nished sur-
face of the Wood Top and minimize the material thickness
that will actually contact the wall.
