We had a Corian counter-top installed a couple years ago. As part of his pitch, the dealer gave a Corian slab a full-windup whack with a claw hammer. The surface didn't shatter and showed no trace of a dent. Yet apparently it can be worked with conventional wood-cutting bits and blades. (I wouldn't expect those baldes to last long.) The stuff comes in all kinds of decorator colors and with speckles and veins and stuff. I've got some 2" x 2" samples around someplace that maybe I'll work into a nut, based on you all's recommendations. You could probably score some cool Corian blanks by going to Home Depot acting like you're totally hot to do your kitchen over.

Tone to the bone.....
