I used a strip of oak around the plywood and that was my exposed wood surface which when stained, looked great.]
Hey Don,
Bob is right, formica is easy to do, specially if you have a router and laminate trimming bit. The wife and I almost went the laminate route ourselves, then she saw what the stain did for the BC plywood and she changed her mind. Its funny, once she saw the counter top stained with the sink sitting in the cutout and the painted trim behind the top, she found out how much she liked it and how much room she'll have on the counter-top. I'm just glad that this part of the project is almost over with.
