    Default The REAL Reason You Need Granite Counter-tops!

    For the cut-outs, obviously! This cut-out from our recent kitchen remodel now has a second life as an awesome, dead-flat, perfectly polished layout and assembly table in the workshop:

    You can also use them to mix up ice cream and nuts or fresh fruit.

    You can drop in a place selling granite counters and ask for a piece. You don't need a lot for a flat working space.

    Like the Marble Creamery-I never thought of that! But since I just got WD-40 on it from a sanding session, I'll use the actual kitchen counter-top unless I want WD-40 ice cream!

    Scrub it down with Dawn and hot water and it will be good as new.

    If you'd used Ballistol instead you could just have liqourice-flavoured ice cream....
