We are going to be installing new counter tops (laminate w/ wood edge) in
our kitchen. I have a piece of granite that I would like to install in
the
countertop near the stove. Does anybody have advice on mounting the
granite
into the countertop. I would prefer to install it flush or near flush
with
the countertop.





installing the granite is the easy part.

cut a beveled (15 degrees) cutout in the laminate top
grind down the edges of the granite (same bevel) to fit in the cutout (all 4
sides get beveled).
make sure the top is the widest part of the beveled edges.


cutouts in laminate tops for cutting boards are a disaster waiting to
happen.

you should be asking
"how do I seal the edge of the laminate cutout"
