Many of the posters who responded "hire a pro" _are_ countertop
fabricators
and installers. They have a vested interest, and a bit of experience.

I figured that out!
I see on other groups where the pros tell posters that what ever they
want to do is to difficult, hire a pro! To me it kind of stinks a bit
that they are trying to protect their job.

I suppose I came across as a smart ass, but geez, after most of the
posts tell me it is way to hard, or expensive for a DIY'er, I get a
little cranky! As far as I am concerned, setting laminate is neither
hard, or expensive, at least not compared to hiring it out!

Like I said, maybe we should all put our tools away, as woodworking can
be expensive, and difficult to do!

After hearing from the "pros" here how persnickety, fragile, and
flammable solid surface was, I lost all interest in it.

Somebody here stated that solid surface (quartz, granite, Corian-like)
is flammable?
Cite please.
If you can't cite (which I know you can't) it just proves once again
that you talk out of your ass.
