Kinda looks like Don King.

he's just ashy.

This. Had a mini since they were released and it’s been a low maintenance workhorse. Prusa adding input shaping, etc. via firmware was just icing on the cake.

Maybe something like: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-1-4-in-x-5-ft-18-Gauge-Thick-Zinc-Plated-Slotted-Steel-Angle-15152/332733420

Not aluminum, but galvanized steel, so should be ok in moderately wet environment. Plus, it’s cheaper than the 1/8” aluminum angle at HD. You could prob get 2 strips from each, or they may even have longer lengths for cheaper.

You’d just have to make sure you’ve got 1.25” clearance (e.g. don’t screw it in right above a drawer).

Of course, one of the things with butcher block is that it’s gonna expand and contract with humidity, so you can’t completely restrict it. But I think that if you use screws that have diameters that are smaller than the pre-drilled holes on that angle, even when they’re screwed in tightly, they’ll have adequate lateral movement.

Disclaimer - I’m not a “carpenter” by any means, but I do nearly all of my own home repairs, and the above is what I’d prob try if faced with your problem.

If bowing of the entire counter is forcing the center apart, -maybe- you could stop it (or possibly correct it somewhat) by screwing in strips of some non-warping material (wood maybe, metal might be better, like beefy aluminum angle) at intervals underneath the counter. Orient them perpendicular to the direction of the butcher block strips. Put screws in every few inches.

It was fear of this warpage happening that when I redid our kitchen with butcher block counters, I chose a drop-in/overmount apron front stainless sink. Has like a 3” wide lip all around on top of the counter, and is thin enough (roughly 1/16”) that once I put a bead of silicon at the edge, I can still easily rake crap off the counter right into the sink. Faucet, etc is all mounted on the sink, so less water exposure. About the worse thing so far has been some surface crud on the wood between the back lip and the wall.

Commanded, of course, by Captain Fred Schneider.

Reminds me of this model I recently saw on Printables:

yep.

Would you mind sharing/posting an STL/3MF for these?

Also, is that Galaxy Black filament?

RUN AWAY!

Stop trying to make Clippy happen.
