What happens here
Unpack the butcher block countertop. Measure the dimensions needed for the benchtop, allowing for a desired overhang (e.g., 1.5 to 2 inches) beyond the front of the cabinet. Use a track saw to precisely cut the butcher block to the marked dimensions. Apply construction adhesive to the top edges of the base cabinet and carefully place the cut butcher block, ensuring even overhang. Secure it from underneath using screws driven up into the butcher block.
Goal: Unpack and cut a pre-finished butcher block countertop to size, then install it as the benchtop for the entryway cabinet, ensuring proper overhang and securing it to the base cabinet.
