I ve got a guy near me selling several sheets of t81 090 13 gauge old sheet metal panels.
Diy sheet metal countertops.
Diy stainless steel countertops however soon enough we came to think of stainless steel and figured it would be pretty awesome to have that for counters.
All of these metal options go to the head of the countertop class.
Fold the edges of the zinc sheet over and under the front face of the countertop by gently bending the sheet with a short length of lumber and a mallet or hammer.
Tap lightly with the mallet or hammer to get the zinc to lie as close as possible to the countertop surface and to create a smooth straight crease.
In the case of copper and zinc they re recyclable and metal countertops don t require sealing or more than soap and water to clean.
When you do it this way as a diy project you can save thousands of dollars in the process.
They are 4 ft by 15 feet or so.
I d like to use these for an island countertop but don t know much about whether this metal is easily bendable with or without a brake or cuttable or if it s way to thin or thick.
Unlike stone such as the ubiquitous granite metal is nonporous read antibacterial and stain resistant.
