Rutu is to the point that I need to do the galley counter tops. As I am
committed to an undermount Skanvik sink I am pretty well locked into solid
surface. After getting this far doing it all myself the idea of paying
someone else $1,000 extra to fabricate them when they have never faced the
challenges of working on a boat and I have all the tools and skills to do it
in 4 or 5 hours really sticks in my craw. The manufacturers certify the
shop not the individual craftsman so I have zero chance of being legal.

Is there any place to get a sheet of 2cm thick solid surface material
without having to be a certified shop?

Here's a site selling Solid Surface material for the DIY'er:

http://solidsurface.com/

admittedly, I don't see 2 cm material (about 3/4"), only 1/2" at this
site.

Well! Seek and ye shall find. Been Goggling for 2 days and didn't see that
one.

For weight saving 1/2" is what I want but had given up on finding it.
Thanks!
