    Alex, I hope you feel tremendously proud of all the hard work that it took to get you here! Not just the hard work doing this remodel, but all of the other work of learning CAD, tools, etc. that allowed you to take on a project like this. So awesome!

  • @Z3ROR

    Absolutely gorgeous kitchen. And ofcourse you need a shelf up there. Just do it! :)

    Love the recessed edge detail between the oak and Corian. That design element adds depth and thickness to the counter without being too heavy! Well done!

  • @LordGarth6
    @LordGarth6 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    i used to work in a warehouse picking/packing wood panels and also hi-max panels. I'll give people a tip (should be obvious and known but best saying it over and over) like paint and anyover plastic you need to ensure the batch code is the same, it should be on the edge of the hi-max panel DONT MIX BATCH NUMBERS unless it cant be helped, always try lay them next to each other (sheet of carboard between lays to reduce scratching) dont think the glues have batch ids though so may slightly differ in colour from "stick" to "stick" and very slightly from teh panel.

    • @alsanova

  • @j_de_s
    @j_de_s 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Brilliant work, I'm loving this kitchen. One potential improvement for your vids (especially as the renovation becomes more aesthetic) - I think you should do more 'money shots' at the end of the video to show off the work. Essentially a montage of clips set against music showing off the piece/your workmanship. Can't tell you how satisfying this is for the viewer! We don't get to bask in the kitchen everyday (as you do), so that's a way of making the viewer feel like they're there, enjoying your work

    • @j_de_s
      @j_de_s 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For reference, you give us 3 seconds (16:28 to 16:31) to look at the kitchen plus a parting shot of the corner. I'd love a 15-30 second montage (depending on the complexity of the build) to really take it in. Als, please don't view this as a complaint - I love your videos and workmanship, I just want to see it more!

  • @yodaiam1000
    @yodaiam1000 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Just use a couple of drops of rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol) and the hot glue de-bonds almost immediately. The is no need to hammer off the blocks and chisel down the glue. It comes off as a solid sheet.🙂

  • @pat_makes_stuff
    @pat_makes_stuff 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    I really enjoy that you are introducing your viewers to different and unique materials. I love the colour scheme of the whole kitchen too!

  • @secondnikos

    The result is astonishing, as always, well done!

  • @Zeldur
    @Zeldur 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I don't care much for minimal looks but holy crap, this kitchen is looking AMAZING. It's so refreshing seeing a design this clean versus what you see in the states. Also, I didn't know you could just buy solid surface slabs. Good to know for the future

  • @LJLancaster
    @LJLancaster 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    That shadow line is gorgeous!!

  • @arnoutdecock476
    @arnoutdecock476 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I'm glad to see you work with solid surface. I fell in love with the material during my internship at a design company that worked almost exclusively with HI-MACS. They have some serious know-how about the do's and don'ts of the material. For instance, they would never use a chamfered edge to create a right angle. The trick is to cut a groove at the end of one piece that's slightly wider than the width of the sheet. The other piece would then fit in this groove with some extra material that can be trimmed away with a flush cut trim bit after glueing. (I hope that made sense?)
    They also had a very nice trick to make fillets at the inside of a corner making it very easy to clean.

    Man, i've watched all of your videos about the apartment from the time when you uploaded the first one, it kinda evolved with me. I am so happy about how your apartment came out! Even it's not finished i have to give to you (and your girlfiend) my congratulations! That is a dream come true and i can only imagine how happy and proud you are about your apartment! Wish you the best for the future! Greetings from Italy

  • @johannes.f.r.
    @johannes.f.r. 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Wow, that's commitment on that glue up.
    I wouldn't put a shelf up if you don't need it. Because it's so visible I'd put a huge painting there or something to make it more part of the living space.

    Alex use the off cuts from your worktop as chopping boards. 13:18 Makes use of the leftovers and saves you having to refinish/sand your tops too often. As a bonus it’ll show you how tough the work surface is. Great work

  • @xDMG15x
    @xDMG15x 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Looks amazing! Seems a bit weird that the stove is on the island rather than the back bench but i’m sure there’s a reasonable explanation! I like the rounded section of the bench near the window, its an odd section and its not obvious how to finish it but i think you’ve nailed it!

    This is becoming a nice apartment. Love that beautiful kitchen.
    A nice thing about the solid surface material is that you can also heat-form it. Just heat up a piece in the oven and bend it in shape on a wooden form. That's a nice project to try on some offcuts you should still have 😄
