    I followed this kitchen surface cutting guide and highly recommend it:

      I've never heard of one of those, but it sounds like a great idea!

    This is great! Well made video, helpful info, and inspirational to know you did it for such a low cost. I found you while researching breakfast bars as I'm about to make my own using old oak boards. Well done and thanks! x

    A tip for cheap work tops is the IKea sale corner at one of there stores I picked up the same worktop as yours for £10 length about 6ft
    I will be following your video to fit one in my fella's house so thanks for an easy to follow tutorial

      Great idea!! Definitely check out the link for the other video about cutting the worktop, I found it really helpful - you'll have to post a link to a photo when it's done!

    Great video. What color was used for the wall?

    • @adventuresinrice
      @adventuresinrice  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      "Pure Grey" Matt emulsion. They've changed the tin, but should be this one:

    Epic nice work.. how does the bar stay secured to the supports?? Does it just sit on top? Feel like I missed this...

    • @adventuresinrice
      @adventuresinrice  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It just sits on top but is pretty tight, it's covered a bit at 16:20 and a 17:18 :)

    How much was the worktop pls ?

    • @adventuresinrice
      @adventuresinrice  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I actually picked it up for free on facebook marketplace, someone was renovating and throwing it out. You can usually find them on facebook etc for around £10 if not free

  • @zack1667

    Brilliant vid, thanks for giving me some more motivation to do it myself. Only issue I have is a cupboard to my left but maybe I could just buy smaller screws for the left?

    • @adventuresinrice
      @adventuresinrice  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! Sure, or any of those screw systems that "grip" onto the wall are good if there's space behind

      I've heard The Range are taking over the brand, so hopefully we'll get the same items at the same price in there :)

      @adventuresinrice  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey, thanks for taking the time to watch.
      I got pretty lucky with the worktop. I find when making things the most expensive parts is where they get you - the middle bits, like edging or finishing!

    Oooh so you don’t need legs?

    • @adventuresinrice
      @adventuresinrice  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It depends on the width and length, luckily mine was quite shallow so the beams on the wall were fine. If it's a deep surface or very long, it might be worth putting a pole in the middle somewhere to help support it :)
