Hi guys. I am just about ready to install counter tops on 4 base cabinets for our den. There are 3 cabinets that will be 30" high and one (for the TV) that will be 24" high.
I want to build the CTs from 3/4" birch ply, with a 3/4" X 1-1/2" oak edging. My wife doesn't want to put regular kitchen cabinet type laminate on top, so since they will not get the abuse of kitchen cabinets, do you think stain and polyurethane (several coats) would do okay? If not, what would you suggest?
