Re: Fake 40mm Caesar stone....worth it? 17Oct 19, 2009 10:57 am Ok, I have hunted up some pics from a display home we were going to build. This kitchen is 40mm.... on the edges and on the visible inside edge of the side panel. The rest is 20mm sitting on board. You can tell this because it is 20mm around the edge of the undermount sink. So the bulk of the bench is 20mm on the board for support... with 40mm on the sides and the visible inside edge of the end panel. You can do 40mm all the way through.... but the cheaper option of 20mm, with only 40mm edging and all the features you want is possible. Show your stonemason these pics. Undermount sink, with 20mm showing around the edge. http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u353/joles_photo/2009-01-21_16-12-32_21012009533.jpg You can see the 40mm edge and the end panel. http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u353/joles_photo/2009-01-21_15-49-24_21012009513.jpg Another of the sink and you can just see the 40mm edge in the corner. http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u353/joles_photo/2009-01-21_16-12-42_21012009534.jpg I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself. Terrence Malick Re: Fake 40mm Caesar stone....worth it? 18Oct 19, 2009 11:27 am Hi All, Sorry but a little bit of a hijack as after reading this thread I am a little worried about our newly installed caesarstone. We got the 40mm edge done with waterfall and 20mm the rest of the way however our stone isn't supported by board and just sits on top of the usual cupboard frame?! Ie, if you look from inside you can see the stone underneath? Is this wrong? Re: Fake 40mm Caesar stone....worth it? 19Nov 01, 2009 4:18 pm 40mm edge caesarstone is ALWAYS 20mm with another 20mm on the edges Its industry standard to do it this way. They can do undermounts and waterfall ends, no problem Granite transformations and various other companies offer a stone on board option that may/may not be the same cost as the latter If i was a savy shopper i would go to three stonemasons in your area and get quotes, you will surprise yourself! If i was paying 3k for a stone bench, i would go all the way and have undermount/flushmount sink and waterfall ends, it just looks 100 times better If you need a kitchen drawn up, post it on this thread - gotta give me a couple of days though:) viewtopic.php?f=16&t=26892 Re: Fake 40mm Caesar stone....worth it? 20Nov 01, 2009 5:20 pm bcmonty Hi All, Sorry but a little bit of a hijack as after reading this thread I am a little worried about our newly installed caesarstone.

Ie, if you look from inside you can see the stone underneath? Is this wrong? I don't know about wrong, but I've never seen it done that way. Our Quantum Quartz has an MDF "underlay", which is invisible behind the thicker edge. My friend's granite benchtop has the same thing. Thankyou for your advice. We do have Caesar coming out and hopefully resolve the issue for us. 4 19551 In fairness nobody gave a crap about the ACCC and the gag clauses continued in the pro forma templates of a few other builders after the ACCC took on Wisdom, and more… 19 75144 Hi I am wanting some opinions about the build of a steel shed I am going to get one about 4.5 x 2.5 m steel shed and the height will be about 2.3-2.4m high The one I am… 0 14982 |
