Corian Fairy came to visit and left a present
So now I have to figure out how to use it. After looking over past post including archive items it looks like there is no one method to drill, glue etc. which is ok. So I will go under the assumption that whatever I have been using for tools and glue may work fine. If not I try one of the other methods I have read about. However I could use some suggestion on how to thank the good fairy.
My daughter works for a kitchen and bath store, she gave me some of the outdated tiles.
Then she asked her supplier for the rest of the goodies. The only condition I need to make a pen for one of the people there. I think this is a good opportunity for future sales and stock, so im willing to a little more.
My turning and fabrication skill are a little weak. My first thought was to do some sort of pen, pencil, letter opener set that will hold business cards to be used at there desks for all the folks. I think there’s about 5-8 people.
I could glue two tiles together and put it on top of another one sort of a upside down T shape. Round everything over with a router. Route out a spot for the cards on top. I could drill holes on the top for the pen, pencil, and opener. Or mount a few pen holders made from smaller pieces on the base, or something along those lines.
Any other suggestion or comments would be helpfull.
One more thing please, at some point ill have to buy and figure the cost into a project. What is the going price for Corian pieces these days. Do you buy it by the inch, foot, pound. Where have you been getting your supply from?
Thanks…….pete
