"I love the way butcher block was and again I wasnt ready to spend 2k for a large piece. Lumber liquidators is your friend! They have great prices on large walnut butcher block. I used waterlox for a sealer and did 5 coats of regular and 2 coats of high gloss. It came out a bit more "yellow" then I wanted but I still love it."
In 2011, we watched bowl games from about 20' up.
Talk about walking out on a limb... especially with the juices being served!
