" Now -- all stone countertops appreciate got to make a template before you go back to the shop to cut it right absolutely yes sir fool proof method. Fabrication what's this white. White paper that -- this -- any polystyrene plastic. Works when it makes it sound effects -- very well. It's flexible could be rolled out so when you leave the job site you just roll up your templates. From a new vehicle and you're done OK the one drawback to it as you can see here at the dishwasher. Is it's so flexible that it actually drew so. We need to have you prop it up before you that's -- market. We have -- steel yardsticks. That we put in there and boom we have a rigid straight surface that allows us to. -- measure the configuration of this cabinet all right so well you do in this particular kitchen and any. Places that you need to scribe or well first of all we need to locate the sink the sink opening is very important. Discuss with the homeowner the location of the faucet holes and so what."

" The next thing that we do is we."

" Have to cut to. To walls. Yeah. Walls are never ninety degrees at one another you actually have to do here well we have to just take a ruler and."

" And basically measure the difference from one end to the other. Make are cut and fitted to the wall."

" All right how about this end. Okay but a mark on the bottom -- up. So we mark. And mark -- in the news. Now this is finished and will there be an overhang yes -- that's that's the reason for."

" We're measuring where the evidence that we can add our one inch overhang right."

" And we cut."

" In the last thing we would do is putting a radius right at the corner. Softening up."

" OK so we make the opening for the sink using the paper template set with the under counter double basin from Kohler. First we cut out the template on the cutting line using a utility knife and scissors. Next the outline of the paper template is transferred to the plastic that your. Then using the utility knife and straight edge we cut out the opening for the sink. So this is the traditional way of making the templates but in the digital age we have Paul Hansen from. Paul what are all these little white and black things on these markers are designed to sit on top of the cabinets to outline. Our countertop to go on the streets section. And then we place some other markers to identify special cut outs giving us Sinaloa locations first -- the other -- secondary Kohler sink that goes here in the island and so these will help to determine where that opening would be. Correct even though it's a circle. That's correct many times the manufacturer will give us a template electronically and putting them and then this. This is a scale which also has two markers that are in homeland now let's find the precision and that all you have to do is take a digital photograph correct we stand back and take two more photographs. Multiple angles. And it's gonna define. The template. Electronically. Now once you've taken these photographs then what happens. -- then the data of the photographs are downloaded the computer and brought into computer aided design system. To create your actual electronic template download the -- machines and and the machine automatically will cut it."
