www.pinnaclekitchens.com , close to Exit-23, in New Hampton, has a kitchen showroom and will build you a beautiful custom counter using plastic laminate if that's what you want.
You may not know that plastic laminate is made that looks just like granite and is totally super-duper fantastilc, but without the porosity problems or big cost of granite. Like, why go granite, when plastic laminate has a betterer performance record!
Wonder if they could build me a heavy duty kitchen counter using a 60-year old 42"x 8' aluminum dock section, formerly the old, beat up, sailboat dock, that's no longer needed ...... just need to use it for something?
