I'm thinking seriously about having a go at some soapstone tops and maybe a sink. We did a remod job a few years ago where the fabricators simply brought in slabs and fabricated the tops on the spot. Used regular carbide tooling and carpentry tools. No magic, no CNC machinery, just epoxy and relatively soft soapstone. I remember thinking that not only could WE do that but we'd probably do a better job, as some of the joints were pretty sloppy.
All that said I have to assume there's more than a few tricks to using this material and I hate to eat expensive goods learning to do a decent job. So, I looked around for something about soapstone fabrication and came up empty handed. No books. No DIY sites. So I figured I'd ask here.
Anyone ever try it? Know of any sources of info? Books? Websites?
Any info appreciated.
