I have a convenient 1.2mt square granite work surface and a long 70cm wide run around the walls which I get access to from time to time - when SWMBO is not in ;) It's the kitchen work surface ... with a pinky shade.
Granite is porous and we were supplied with a bottle of sealer with instructions to wash the surface down, leave to dry naturally over night with the kitchen warm and then apply sealant. That was 12+ years ago and I've lost the bottle long ago, but the surface is as shiny as the day it was installed, and while not micro accurate is more than flat enough for my needs :) If I have an accurate job to do it just gets a run over with the scrapper prior to use to ensure any remains from it's other uses are removed ... You will see it in the background of many of the shots on the website as the array of low voltage halogen bulbs in the canopy provide a nice even light :) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
