Grizzly has a no-ledge 24"x24" chunk of granite accurate to within

take its 234 pounds. You'll also need a couple helpers to get it ON the
bench.

Nah, free is good. I think this was a piece of counter backsplash. I
used
to deliver to a place next door to a stone counter maker. I picked up a
whole gob of this stuff. Unfortunately, I'm down to two pieces. It
hasn't
stood up very well. The top, smooth layer eventually wants to flake off
after a few times in the saddle as a Scary Sharp(tm) stone.

I might have to see about getting some pieces of plate glass or something.

go to a place that makes windows and does shower door installs. they won't
give you any scrap usually, because of liability, but the one i went to
said, that dumpster over there gets filled at the end of the day, and we
lock up and go home at 6pm.

that said, i just cut up a 3/4" glass 4'x4' dining table top i got for a few
dollars at a yard sale.
