In process of building a counter top for a relative. I plan on using long grain pieces of maple, similar to a work bench top. I was going to use this as a test for a larger project a customer has asked for delivery this summer. I have been making cutting boards for the last couple years, and feel fairly competent at this project.
I plan to make this thing 1 3/4" thick and will use hard maple glued together with TB3.
The finish is still in question, would like to use a wipe on application, but will bow to your wisdom.
Anything I should think about in particular?
