[/url] thanks that's good to have as an option

the side panels will both be seen, the full extent of them, so your idea would not work there, but yes I see what you mean about the middle one being kind of recessed back and not showing

the ones I found are all at least 60mm whereas the ply is only 18mm. Plus I'm not sure how it would look to have a chrome pole between two integrated appliances there won't be cabinets either side though, just end support panels yes it's a laminate worktop, so chipboard yes. It will only...

That was my original idea just to support them on either side, but was advised against. I had another throught that I might at some point want to change the doors in my kitchen and so thought it might be better to use ply for the actual support panels and then attach Ikea cover panels for...

thank you, you have been very helpful and informative. I think I will use the Ikea cover panel for the ends and a piece of exterior ply for the middle support.

the Ikea cover panel is particleboard with a front of birch veneer, so I wonder if I would be better off with birch ply for the end panles. On the panel between the two appliances only the front edge will show

The peices either side willdefinitely show. The one in the middle, I don't know if it will till it's fitted. I am getting birch veneer doors, so maybe a piece of birch ply between the dishwasher and washing machine would work well. Is ply better than mdf or other fibreboard?

I am fitting an Ikea kitchen. In one spot there will be an integrated washing machine next to an integrated dishwasher, with no units either side. I think the best way to support the worktop over these two appliances is to have two worktop end panels on either side and a worktop support panel...

I recently purchased a Brydale X to cope with a draught under my front door. I've been following the instructions, and have it cut to the required length, but I've come across a couple of problems that I hope very much someone with more experience can help with 1. First, it has an...

Kling Strip and Peel Away both use this method. I've not tried either. I'm just starting stripping my woodwork using a heat gun, but wondered about what I'd do if any little bits got left, as I'm also thinking about an old fashioned dark stain, rather than paint

thanks warehouseman, I googled it and it sounds like it will do the trick, and it's not expensive either

I am disabled with mobility problems. The tiles on my bathroom flloor make getting in and out of the bath a nightmare. My condition is progressive so I will eventually redo my bathroom completely, so I don't want to do anything costly or really time consuming now if I can avoid it. So for now...

I had one in my last house and wouldn't have one again. Having said that it was a small kitchen and there really was only counter top on either side of the sink. I needed to maintain it with tung oil about every few weeks. I wonder if maybe it wasn't treated with enough oil before it was...

Thanks for the reply, and sorry I posted in the wrong forum. I was trying to post it in Decorating and Painting.

I've started to strip the wallpaper off all the walls in my flat. And I'm left wondering what is underneath. Is there anyway to find out what kind of plaster I've got. The flat was built in 1895 and is sandstone, so could the plaster be lime-based? If so how do I tell? I'm asking...

My flat was built in 1895. The building is sandstone. The survey reported some minor signs of damp under the front bay-window, but also said the sash and case windows had not been well maintained, and my solicitor said the window could have caused the damp problem. So I need to get this...

Hi, I know there are fans of Holkham Linseed Oil Paint on this forum and I'm interested in using it on my woodwork, interior and exterior. Most of the interior doors were stripped bare by a previous owner and left without any finish for a long time, so they are very dry looking and very...

thanks memor maplin, i'm a bit worry the beeswax wont be enough as the doors look so dry, plus they already are cracked in places so dont know what to do about that thanks again Lindsay

The doors in my house are old panelled doors that need some help. Here's what I think happened. I think the previous owners of my house had the doors dipped and all the paint removed and then their renovation project stopped for whatever reason, so they left them totally untreated Now...
