counter top redo

so the wife calls me over to her computer while she's getting hooked in pintrest.

she found a counter top redone in pennies.

thinking it through,, a 3' x 8' counter top as an estimate would take about worse case 50$ in pennies.?

i just did the area of a penny (using 1/2'' wide as a guess,  then rolled through the math.

with that plus 50$ in epoxy mix... sounds like an inexpensive soltuion.

apparently they must have dumped them in a cleaner before hand,, the thing glows copper

do you put glass over the top? I think it would ruin a good counter

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
