Hi all,
I've been working on remodeling my kitchen for months now and finally into the home stretch. Stripped down to studs, insulation, replaced dropped ceiling with sheet rock, built all cabinets and decided to try Stone Coat Countertops epoxy for the counter top. The counter is 3 pieces of MDF that will be joined with dominoes and epoxied. The longest piece needed to fit between 3 walls. I should have tried scribing a pattern first but didn't and there is a tapered gap on one side that that gets to about 3/4" wide which I need to fill. It doesn't need to look pretty as the Stone Coat epoxy will cover it, but it needs to be flat/level with the rest of the counter top with no gaps so the epoxy doesn't leak through before it sets. I thought I could scribe on 1/4" plywood to use as a template to cut a filler piece which could be epoxied in place. I've tried making the plywood even with the edge of the MDF (following the gap) as well as flush to the wall and scribe following the wall but neither gives me a piece that would fit. I've also considered using foam backer rod and then covering with the same epoxy to be used to joint the 3 pieces (knife grade). Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong when trying to scribe or other ideas?
BTW, a floating floor will be installed when this is all done
Appreciate any suggestions!
