braaap Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Go to a local granite shop and have them make you one out of a granite remnant. I've done it twice. One was 30x30 the other was 48x18. I paid $50 for one and $75 for the other. Link to comment

kush'sreef Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 That's it! It won't crack? I was thinking half inch. What about marble? And 3 side 2 short 1 long have a half inch overlay I like the polished sides Link to comment

And 3 side 2 short 1 long have a half inch overlay I like the polished sides I would also look at gneiss. It's incredibly hard and simply beautiful. It has a lot of swirls and comes in a variety of colors. My dream home would definitely have it for counter tops. Link to comment

And 3 side 2 short 1 long have a half inch overlay I like the polished sides 2cm is .78 inches. So no it won't crack if you have the proper surface under it. I don't have mine anymore but as far as I know they are still holding up. Link to comment
