That's what I was trying to confirm with the photo on the original post. Perhaps should have taken a better photo.

Here are some photos of the bench in question (note - I understand two 20mm pieces are attached, and the joins on those are fine, I am referring to the join between the vertical apron end, and the benchtop). I couldn't get into next door as we have tiles going in, but you cannot easily see...

Awesome that's what I thought, however I obviously communicated that very poorly to begin with :D

I think it should be arrised by my understanding. Not pencil round. I'll check up. But the two pieces of stone should be joined the same way for pencil or arris yer? ie mitred cut and join?

Hah, I'm getting the same as next door. I think I have confused the issue myself with the nomenclature. I'll take some more photos this arvo to show what the setup is. I'm not expecting to see any joins. Cheers! WillB

the join in the photo I showed initially is the outer join between the bench surface and apron end. it runs from one side of the bench to the other. I'm pretty sure that's the config of how the bench was joined.

Sorry I meant how they joined it, not the finish. My apologies. I should have said this is the style of join they have done

Just to clarify, this is the style of edge they have done.

Thanks guys, they are both the same benches, both 40mm top with waterfall/apron end. Next door literally cannot see a join anywhere, it is what I'd call visually perfect. They were done by the same two boys over two days, so its just bad luck I think. Well the site super is going to...

Thanks again guys, yup it makes good sense to me from a strength point of view now. I hadn't considered that previously, it was more about the finish. Maybe I'll give the builder a break on this one. It's always good to arm one's self with as much outside information as possible, rather...

Thanks all, Some very helpful stuff there. Scott, great diagram mate, but if that was the case wouldn't I see the line on the other bench next door? The other bench is what I'd call perfect, where it has the nice stone consistency right to the edge of each piece and you wouldn't even know...

def caesarstone. What I'm thinking is the join was done incorrectly, and we can see the glue. Looking at the fabrication manual, this shouldn't occur even if they "sand" the edge slightly to get a nice finish. It looks like the sanding has exposed the glue, which should end up nowhere near...

Thanks all, Sorry it is a 40mm piece with a join. So they have just cut a bit hard? ALl the other benches I've seen with this sort of join (including the one they did on my next door build) shows pattern right up to the join, so I was a bit concerned about this. AJB have they just mitred...

Hi gang, we have just had kitchens installed for a new project, and I noticed on the corner joins (arris edge) of our Caesarstone benches, there appears to be no pattern, which I find quite odd. I was under the impression the caesarstone was consistent throughout (ie stone to resin mix), so...
