no problem. Are you getting or have you purchased it from B & Q? If you don't mind me asking. Only because it looks like you have gone to a fair amount of work in reducing the height of the wall and replastering etc. where any half decent kitchen designer would have seen the issue quickly on the survey and come up with this solution. Thanks

One or two observations: Oak breathes, in as much as when wet it will expand and when dry it shrinks, that's why it is good for boat and barrel building, when wet the gaps close up and make it watertight. What that means for a worktop is that unless the wood is stabilised (soaked through with epoxy) it will expand and contract, if glued to the granite that means when expanding it will warp, staying still where the glue is and bending downward, not much but it will. Perhaps a less porous wood could be better, bamboo is good, then, if the counter top end is flush, you could screw and/or glue a stout batten of matching material to the end of the counter to add support ( extend it out past the front of the counter to ad support to the overhang) then glue the block to the granite with epoxy and screw up through the batten.

Thanks everyone for all the positive comments. Just to answer your query Lisa-jane. The resin which you see lite fills the hole of the groove so there are no grooves etc so no problem with the crumbs. The light; you should never need to change them they should last approx 30,000 hrs. The ones in our showroom has been going for nearly 2 years 24, 7. If you did need to change them it is not difficult.

If you just want a prep surface and overhang for stools with some open storage then a wooden topped kitchen or dining table, raised up with something like newel posts or similar to work bench height with a shelf inserted between is very effective. If you require a deeper overhang (I believe overhangs larger than 15cm might need bracketing and the tabletop secured well to prevent tipping) then you could place an additional work top over it. You could paint the feet, legs and shelf to match your perimeter units or as an accent colour. Maybe a little on the rustic side but I have seen it with a back gloss kitchen with pine top and cream legs and shelf and it looks good, warming up the black.
