A magazine I saw today featured a JIG for cutting Post Formed Countertops
such as the one a reader had a problem with last week (and posted here). Basically, it is two pieces of 3/4" MDF or plywood (one bout six inches longer than the counter top is deep and the other about six inches longer than the backsplash is high/tall. These are joined at right angles so as to lay on the counter top (with the counter top positioned "right side" down). A strip of wood is fixed to the edge(s) to guide a "skill saw" base plate as it cut through the MDF Support and the Counter-top below, then run "down" the back side to cut the back splash in the same fashion. With the "good side" down, it appears to meet all the requirements for a clean cut and could be adapted ( I suspect) to cutting the 90's our OP required. Sorry I forgot to note the name of the publication! |

Nothing wrong with that! Makes a whole lot of sense. |
