Is this easy to do, or do I risk cracking the sink basin?

Many thanks.

Everyone:

Thanks so much for all of your great feedback. I went to Home Depot
today and I purchased three sinks, and three new faucets. I decided I
did not want to put money into new cabinets and vanity tops, and use
the old sinks. The sinks were only $39 each, and almost like what I
have.
I just felt this makes it all so much easier.

I will need to hire a plumber anyway to install the faucets.

Faucets are easy too. Put them on the sink (through the countertop holes)
before you put in the sink. Once the sink is in, just connect the supply
lines on the faucet to the water inlets.

Install the supply lines on the mixing valves before placing the sink
in the counter. Dry fit everything before permanently mounting the
sink. It makes it even easier. No plumber needed.

You make it sound easy. I may just try this. Thanks.
