compact laminate worktops

Post by fin »

first time fitting these..

anyone else fitted them before? need to fit an undermount sink and drainer grooves also. whats the score with mason mitre joints? ive got a standard unika jig

ive been supplied by howdens with a fitting kit with some 2 pac glue and sanding disks, some brass dowel things and some screws and a few other bits and pieces...

also some very small like 8mm or so joining bolts like smaller versions of what i normally would use on a laminate worktop.... do i need a different jig for this?

Never fitted them fin was going to have em in my latest place but seemed such a ballache supposed to use diamond tipped router bits. I did fit some in a washroom lately but was obviously a lot easier no undermount sinks and no joins. I did find some good jigsaw blades for them but be no use to you on a worktop.
