I just...I am in the process of making one of these. I just bought 2 of the 9 cube organizers. I am going to order a laminate counter top that is 36" deep x 62" long. I was wondering, do you need to attach a piece of plywood to the underside of the counter top in order for it to fit flush? The reason that I ask is that the man at Menards told me that if I didn't either order a deeper counter top or attach a piece of plywood to the underside, it wouldn't work.<br /><br />Please email me back regarding this. My email is debragilbert42@yahoo.com. The counter top is rounded on both of the long ends of it.<br /><br />I just want to make sure that this is going to work before I go and spend the money on the counter top.<br /><br />Thanks!

I, too, saw a similar table at Pottery Barn-Whoa!. Pricey. My craft dilemma has been solved! Going to Home Depot or Lowe's to see about a large laminate counter. Now- I need a pantry-just got quoted a $900.00 price tag. Have you got a tutorial that will save me some money?

Mine is about 9 ft long and has 4 of those shelves supporting the tabletop which is just melamine coated MDF ($35-ish from Lowes). I had them cut it down a little bit and then I covered the edges with the iron-on edging. I was always nervous about the shelves collapsing under the weight of the tabletop and all of my stuff, so I bought two adjustable legs from Ikea. The table top isn't attached to the shelves at all, but the legs are screwed into the underside. It's kind of handy because I can shift it around and rearrange every time I find good ideas on Pinterest. I swear I spend more time organizing my craft area than actually doing crafts. I'll show you some pics tomorrow. I need to charge my camera battery. :-)Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04820485825492363796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-5037503954413371142012-02-21T00:17:04.216-05:002012-02-21T00:17:04.216-05:00I LOVE this!!!
