I removed the old granite work surfaces and kept them, rather than
throwing them in the skip. I thought they'd be worth something.

Looking on ebay, I see loads of people with a similar idea. I get them
impression looking at the prices that there's not much of a market for
used work tops.

Am I totally wrong. Anyone else out there tried to shift unwanted
granite/marble ?

Thanks


No, but working granite is beyond any normal builder or kitchen fitter,
let alone diy person. Cutting it is very difficult and often dangerous.
Cutting accurately almost impossible. Polishing the cut edge requires
industrial equipment, abrasives and water cooling.

Not so sure that a diamond saw won't cut it well enough.

Agree wbout polishing though. Needs to be honed with more dianmond edged
stuff

But boy, it lasts...
