Custom oak shelves and worktop, by Ben

In this project, Ben shares his skills as a woodworker and shows how he created custom oak planks and a worktop. His attention to detail and craft skills result in functional and aesthetically pleasing additions to his space.

Description from Ben

We have a small kitchen that needs some worktop extension and additional shelving had. We love oak, hence the choice we made.

How I made this project

We first discussed how much extra storage space we needed and then chose 3 shelves and a worktop to store the new food processor. Then we sanded all the wood to 400 grit and used blind shelf supports. Then we finished the whole look with wood oil.
