i finished up my little project today.. its not fancy by any means but it works great for extra counter space!
How I did it:
took a 1x2 cut it into 3/20" pieces ( 45 degree angles) put a peice of 1/4 plyboard on top using small nails and glue.
went to home depot and bought 4 peel and stick leno peices.. cut to fit and stuck them on the top! All done..
