STEP 10:
Set up your sink clamping procedure, consisting of 36" pipe clamps and 2x4's or
plywood. Allthread bolts work well also, but it is the slower technique. Use one for each
drain
STEP 11:
Mix up amount of glue needed, as directed 'in STEP 6 of mixing and gluing. Usually 2 oz
for single or small sinks, such as vanity and bar sinks, and 4 oz for large sinks.
STEP 12:
Pour glue directly onto counter top seam area about 1/2" back from edge of cutout,
making sure to completely cover where sink 'is to be seamed. Make a solid continuous bead,
not a broken one; no spot gluing.
STEP 13:
Gently place sink onto glue area and clamp Do not over tighten.
You may make another mix and completely back fill at this time. When glue is dry, remove
clamp clamping system and positioning
blocks.
STEP 14:
Now turn counter top over to its topside position and use a 14' (degree) to 19' angled
1/2" radius flush trim bit with a nylon bearing. Because the sink walls are angled
about IS' (degrees), a steel bearing will make an impact (or white bruise) line and will
increase sanding time dramatically.
STEP I 5
Use a 5" palm sander and 80 grit paper to remove any rough spots or router chatter
marks. Finish with 60 micron or 220 grit and scotch Brite.
STEP 1:
Select style of sink. Use a template and router with a V outside diameter collar and
3/8" plunge bit to make cut out.
STEP 2:
Next, use a 1/4" radius bit to round over the edge of the opening
STEP 3:
Use the under-cutting bit to remove the air pockets from sink mounting area.
STEP 4:
Completely sand within 2 - 3" back from opening, 'including radius, with a finishing
grit. This radius will be extremely difficult to sand after the sink has been mounted, for
fear of damaging the sink.
