Slab Construction

Slab Construction

1.       Calculate the finial size of your slab (In your plans look at width and length).  Add 1” to length and 1” to width for slab size

2.       Prep the edges on the table saw (remove the boards crown).  Mark an X on the edge that you have removed the crown on.

3.       Dry fit all pieces, make sure the edges coming together have a nice seam with no gaps!

4.       Apply glue on the both X sides

5.       Clamp together the boards to form a slab.  Clamps are two inches from the ends and 1 in the middle as seen below.  Once clamped put your name and time on your slab.

6.       The following day scrape of the excess glue with the paint scraper.
