Hello, My dad is busy fitting my new kitchen, and it is a U shape design, so will need 2 joints cut for my worktops. (high gloss black) What is the best way to do these? I have read previous threads. He has all the kit, and is excellent at DIY!!! Thanks for your help!

The best way is to use a kitchen worktop jig, a couple of quick release cramps, a 30mm guide bush, a 2-1/2 to 3HP (1800 watts or more) 1/2in plunge router and a brand new 1/2in diameter x 50mm high TCT or TC-RT (better) cutter. Just like the other posts said.....

heeellloo emma72 
are the worktops still in the wrappers !!!!
are you house proud!!!!!
do you have kids or pets!!!
if any of the above i would strongly suggest you swop them for "normal" worktops as high gloss shows up watermarks scratchess any thing will show up you will be forever cleaning and after several months the scratches will bug you
these things happen to normal worktop but you wont notice it its just the high gloss will show up everything
a bit like a plain white carpet and a well paterned or dark carpet
you wouldnt dream of having a white carpet with children pets or grubby bare feet
