I'm looking to making a shelf/breakfast bar in the kitchen: 72" by 21"
- it will not be supporting any great weight - and in fact will not really be used as a breakfast bar: more of a surface for putting cookerbooks, a plant and bits and pieces on. It will be supported on a baton on the walls on one of the long edges and one of smaller edges: the "floating" corner will be supported by a pole to the floor. It will be tiled on top and along edges. The question is - what material? I am thinking 1/2" or 3/4" ply. Thoughts?
