As I prepare to build my router table, I have to get some laminate for the
top (and underside of the top). While I was in the BORG today, I saw these
laminated floorboards.

The fit together incredibly snug. In fact, one of the rooms in my house
has these boards. They only cost about $3 a square foot.

About half the price at Costco,


I figure it would be a LOT easier to lay these out and get the nice flat
surface I'm looking for. The boards are usually "floated", but they can be
glued.


I would use my brad nail gun and contact cement. The under side is also
smooth and may not stick too well.

Is there any reason that this would be a bad idea?


Why not get a solid piece of 3/4" thick liminated 4x8 sheet and be done with
it without the gluing part. Some places sell partial sheets like 4x2, 4x4
rather getting a whole box of laminates.
