Wood Counter Tops??
Anyone ever had any experience with using wooden counter tops...Have seen this on Pinterest and seems really cheap (50 bucks total) but is it durable? They are using 2x10s and 2x8s and staining them different colors...Would be easy to make like new, but wondering about if they really do hold up to wear and tear...Any thoughts? By the way, this is a complete gut! Brand new cabinets, counters, etc...I attached a picture for your viewing pleasure! I've already ripped it all out and am down to the floor joists and wondering should I order counter tops that are prefab or do the wood idea. I only paid 3500 for the house, putting in 15k in renovations, and it will rent in the 550-600 range, but tenants will be ROUGH on it.
