Nice Rusty. Where did you get your Corian from? I’m in the market for a white piece that’s 8-9 inches square.

Check with your local counter installers. When they do a sink, they cut out a good sized piece and have no further use for it. A couple years ago, someone suggested they may have wised up and started charging for the cut-out, though.

You going to turn it? How thick do you need?

Mark StLeger uses some in one of his sphere-turning demo. He turns the four spheres then the base from corian.
(The spheres are perfect - you can twist the top one gently and the pyramid goes round and round!)

He gave me this one after a demo at a symposium:

If you can't find any, I can try sending him a note to see where he gets it.
But what he used was 1/2", thinner than the 1" thick stuff I'm used to.

Might check with a companies that do kitchen and bath countertops. A sink cut out should work.

I did a couple of corian pens and that more than satisfied my curiosity with the material
