Tonight I was finally able to use the 1” flush trim bit I got at Lowes the other day and trim back the edge of the shelf top to the template.
With the template removed:
Finally, after getting the edges sanded and the rounded profile made more round (with my new Rikon 1” belt/5” disk sander), the top/edges/ends sanded with 400 grit, and a quick wet down (to raise grain and get some of the dust out of the walnut grain):
Next up is making final cuts to the backsplash and support and assembling!

Dan,
Looking good.
I really like that piece of oak. Excellent QSawn with major rays…
Keep up the good work.
Be Careful!

Thanks! That’s actually one of the least wild pieces of QSRO I have. Unfortunately, as I started planing it down, I started finding a lot of blue/black discoloration (see the back, right corner). I expect most will be covered up by the backsplash though.
