Technological stages of manufacturing
The sawing of the parts from lumber

Back to the installation of the countertops. Prepare several identical wedges, with which you can make the gaps between adjacent parts are the same. After securing the boards with nails, remove the temporary wedges. Through the resulting gap-the gap in the countertop surface will be able to drain rainwater. After a summer rain, the table and benches will quickly dry out under the sun and wind.
