Afternoon everyone,
I went with my parents last week to look at the three pieces of granite that came in for their countertop. Turned out on inspection all had through cracks and were scrap. After checking around, there was no more granite like it in the country and they would have to wait at least three more months for another chuck to come from Russia. Needless to say, Mom has been without a kitchen for almost forever by now and I wanted her to have a countertop of some type, if for nothing else than to protect the cabinets until the real granite one is made months from now.
It is amazing what you can do with a sheet of 3/4" plywood and some MacTack (sp?). From 5' it looks real.
