Hopefully one day I can expand a house and have a proper dining room and free up space for an island. I could build a small one but small and tall worries me that I will tilt it over with my clumsiness. However I think I should analyze if my kitchen could be remodel into a more practical design.

      The recommended worktop overhang for a breakfast bar is 300mm. This overhang is needed to be able to get chairs and your legs underneath it, to be able to sit comfortably. The smallest width an island with breakfast bar seating for 2 people can be, is between 1000mm & 1200mm wide. This is because you need between 500mm & 600mm for each seat under the breakfast bar

    Nice! I might have missed it because I watched the video with no sound, but will the island be held down or is it movable once finished? It turned out so beautiful! 😊

    • @dcwoodworks
      @dcwoodworks  3 года назад +1

      This one will be held down because I am putting the dishwasher in between both cabinets but if you just build an island with no appliances, it can move like furniture :)

    You're going to have to install an outlet in that island. All permanent islands must have an outlet receptacle according to building code. Should be okay if you arent selling the house soon

    • @dcwoodworks
      @dcwoodworks  3 месяца назад

      Thanks so much I appreciate that!
      It was only a few hundred dollars when I built it, but that was five years ago
      Prices have increased so much but I still think you could get something built well under what it cost to buy one premade
      The last time I saw an island sort of thing being sold in a big box store it was either a quarter of the size of this one or $2000
      I think you could make it today for about six or 700
