I am trying to find a place that stocks and sells post-form Formica kitchen

wall, and I will put up tile on the wall as a backsplash.
I want to buy two countertop pieces that will go together to form a corner
countertop -- but where the corner would be, there is a chimney, so the
countertop has to go around the chimney. Â*That means that the standard
post-form countertops with a built-in backsplash won't work because the
backsplash won't go around the chimney.
Anyone know where I can buy what I am looking for? Â*I am in New Jersey

People used to laminate their own back some years ago. See if you
can't find some laminate stock, contact cement, and build a nice
smooth plywood counter top to put it on. You might get some unusual
design possibilities with that technique. HTH

A bit difficult to get the moulded bull-nose or drip edge making your
own - and totally un-neccessary as virtually all post-formed counter
tops are custom made except for the "stock" stuff at the "borg".
