In this video I will show you a technique I use to build a wood top that says flat and stable.

Building a large wood countertop or tabletop is not just about gluing the boards together. Wood naturally expands, contracts and moves - and if you don't account for that movement during the build, you can end up with problems later. I will walk you through the method for building this and explain the details that help keep a large wooden top flat, strong, and stable over time.

Thanks for watching our throwback video this week.
