preparing to cut corian counter top

Working with used Counter tops can save you money. If you have the tools for medium skill level wood working then this is something that you should be able to handle. I looked on Craig’s List to find used Corian counter tops. you can find several people that are trying to sell ones that they have replaced their existing ones with something else or just a change in color. I had a project that we wanted to update the existing Mauve colored tops with something newer. I was able to find a nice amount of Corian tops that was enough that I could cut and make changes to make the kitchen look new. (more…)

Corian Countertops

Corian Countertops can be installed by certified professionals only, however, if you have a decent knowledge of  installing countertops and some basic wood working skills then you can probably work with corian. Some recourses you may be able to buy corian is Craig’s list or your local add tab etc. Pay close attention to your lay out you are trying to install tops on. This can be a money saver because there area several people out there that are getting rid of their corian countertops to change color or material. If you have a simple layout of cabinets to install tops on then this could be a DYI project. Corian can be cut with a carbide blade one with more teeth does a nicer job than those with less. tools you will need include a good straight edge, a good circular saw, some clamps, if edges will have to be repaired you will need some color epoxy, Epoxy Gun (this may be a little more difficult to find as a DYI) we may be able to help you with this.
