I've got a non-load bearing wall between my kitchen and dining room. I'd like to cut out a window that is roughly 4'x4'. For a counter, I'd like to buy a piece of black walnut that's roughly 2.5" thick, 4' long, and about 10" wide (the wall thickness is about 5", giving it a 5" overhang into the dining room, and flush with the wall in the kitchen. My questions are:
1) Will I need to completely remove the drywall and re-frame the wall with the passthrough?
2) In order to attach the wood countertop, will it be okay to use wood glue, and screw the countertop from underneath the wall frame into the bottom of the wood countertop?
Any other suggestions or ways to approach this are appreciated! I searched the forum for suggestions but only found passthroughs for laminate or granite countertops.
