Installation Overview
Fabricating and installing the Bar Straight Bar - 10ft (36" height) layout follows a structured process designed for straight configurations. Begin by importing the DXF template into your CAM software and creating an optimized cutting plan for 120" width, 36" height, 18.0" front_depth geometry. For bar counter height installations, account for any field modifications noted during site verification. Program CNC cuts with appropriate tool compensation for blade kerf width. Cut all pieces, then perform edge finishing as specified. Dry-assemble the complete layout in the shop when possible to verify fit before delivery. During installation, start with the longest run of the straight layout, setting it level on the prepared cabinets. Use construction adhesive rated for stone on all cabinet contact surfaces. Proceed with adjoining sections, seaming with color-matched epoxy. For corners in the straight configuration, use specialized seam placement to minimize visual impact. Support all overhangs with brackets rated for the stone weight. Seal all surfaces upon completion.
CNC Cutting Notes
For the Bar Straight Bar - 10ft (36" height) profile, set your CNC router spindle speed between 5000-7000 RPM for quartzite substrates. Use a feed rate of 40-60 IPM for roughing passes and reduce to 20-30 IPM for finishing passes. Select a diamond-tipped profile bit matching the template radius specifications. Program the toolpath using climb milling for cleaner cuts on the straight geometry. Maintain coolant flow at 2+ GPM to prevent thermal fracturing. For harder stones like granite, reduce feed rates by 20% and increase water flow. Run a test cut on scrap material to verify the profile matches the DXF template before committing to production stock.
Material Compatibility
The Bar Straight Bar - 10ft (36" height) profile pairs best with medium-to-hard natural stones and engineered materials. Granite is the ideal substrate, offering the hardness needed to maintain the straight geometry while accepting a brilliant polish. Quartz composites provide consistent results with minimal tool wear variation. For softer stones like marble or limestone, the profile remains achievable but requires adjusted CNC parameters and additional care during finishing. Exotic stones such as quartzite and super-white dolomite produce stunning results with this profile. Sintered stone panels are compatible when using specialized thin-material tooling. Always perform a test cut on representative material before beginning production runs.
