Worktop edging
I hope this makes sense. I need to fill a gap between cooker and
existing worktop. They are joining at a right angle. Now I believe the proper way would be router and a joining kit, however I suspect the other half may change her mind on this (after the event) so not going down this route. The issue is I am joining a rounded (front) worktop edge to a straight (end) edge, I cant find a metal strip that covers that permutation. I will probably just connect one to the other with metal brackets on the underside and a batten on the wall but its the join between the 2 worktops thats a problem. Have I missed them on google or is there something else I can do? |

Either use one of these http://www.priceinspector.co.uk/p/wo...n/f/desc,True/ Or joint it like this. http://www.alibaba.com/product-free/..._Repairer.html I must add that with my joinery skills I would do the first.

Mike I reckon I can do the joinery but for the fact the worktop with the rounded edge is already in place (existing) so cutting that out would be more difficult, and wife is likely to maybe not like the added portion from a practical point after its in as the tumble dryer will be under the added part but at 90% access, although rarely used. The layout is a 10 ft length of worktop then a double cooker and then a gap (approx 24 inches) and then the old existing worktop at right angles about 10 feet, so like an L shape but with a gap of 2 feet which is the bit I want to fill to make it complete as she wants worktop either side of the cooker. Thanks for the links. |

Worktop edging
In article , ss
scribeth thus I hope this makes sense. I need to fill a gap between cooker and existing worktop. They are joining at a right angle. Now I believe the proper way would be router and a joining kit, however I suspect the other half may change her mind on this (after the event) so not going down this route. The issue is I am joining a rounded (front) worktop edge to a straight (end) edge, I cant find a metal strip that covers that permutation. I will probably just connect one to the other with metal brackets on the underside and a batten on the wall but its the join between the 2 worktops thats a problem. Have I missed them on google or is there something else I can do? There is one made as I've just used it this very week;!.. Got it from Ridgeons in Cambridge and its made by Rixonway kitchens who do a sort of basic trade supplier kitchen. Very good value for the money... -- Tony Sayer |
