Hi, I have to make units for a hair salon and they keep/use bleaches and dyes on the counter. They don't want to use formica or glass on the top as there will be 2 waste bin cut outs in it. It measures 3000mm x 500mm. I've priced corian but I'd like to have a few more choices. Would anyone have...

Thanks for that.

Hi I bought a few bits at a car boot stall on Sunday and among them were these bits. Can anyone shed some light on what they are? Thanks

Hi I've been asked to make and install under stair storage units. My problem is the stairs is 1200mm deep and they want pull out units. They were thinking of having the units on wheels with the doors attached to the unit. My problem with this is that with 4 young children that a unit of that...
