Building Curved Counters...and Teamwork!

Tensor's US team had a sales meeting this week.  But we didn't just sit around and talk about stuff we're all working on this time!  Tuesday rolled around and the salespeople from around the nation arrived to be greeted by a taste of excitement lingering in the air.  Yep, something great was going to be happening today.

Everyone could already feel the excitement of the IWF show fast approaching, even though it's not until August.  It will be here before we know it.  But the most exciting part is that we actually had some hands-on experience in a real life scenario by building the front counter for our booth.  

We relied on a local casework manufacturer to produce the parts (thank you HWI!) and the experience of our salespeople to drive the project ahead.  

After with building the shelves and structure, we were glad to get to the point of spraying TensorGrip L12.  We used L12 on the back of the bender board to glue it to the face of the curved structure.  With no fasteners, no clamping, and no bracing, the entire bender board process took less than 15 minutes, including final handling time.

We applied the second layer in the same manner to finish out the perfect rounded face.  Then we brought on the TensorGrip L10N for the laminate.  Starting with a narrow spray pattern, we added the edgebanding.  Then the countertop laminate.  Finally, the curved face laminate.  All with no telegraphing and very few errors! :)  

(Oh, and we cleaned up the little bit of overspray with the mighty TensorGrip S500!)

Great job team Tensor!
