thank you so much for all the information! happy renovations!

Have a similar wall for appliances/pantry/desk. What is the length of this wall and width of pantry?

What distance do you recommend between island and counter depth french door refi/freezer.

The oven/pantry/desk wall is 131 inches long and 24 inches deep. I have a distance of 50 inches from the corner of the counter to the centre of the french door fridge and it works really well. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much for the info, and your fast response. This is very helpful!!

Is this all walnut, edge grain?

Yes all walnut long planks

Hello. We just installed walnut butcher block and will only use as a countertop. Could you please provide specific details of what products you used to finish it with. Thanks.

Here is my comment that I posted previously; hope it helps - The butcher block is used as a counter top only - it is not food safe. It has been treated with oils and beeswax so cleanup is a breeze. The cutout from the gas cook top was made into a large butcher block (2 1/2 x 2 feet) which was finished with a different product that is food safe and that sits on my counter. See enclosed picture. For the counter top I have an anti bacterial product for cleaning (like a soap) and also another solution that has wax which I use occasionally to give it a nice shine. Check out the website http://signaturestephanedion.com/file/entretien.html Counter top was manufactured by them and products are from them too.
