I don't know if this is the right place but.....
I have a chance to buy some old real slate stone school chalk boards.
They are 48 by 48 inches. and they would be cut in half cause the counters are 24 inches deep. I would need 5 full boards to do my counters and backsplash behind the range and to cover the wall where the range used to be.
Since they are 4 feet wide, there would be very few seams. The green painted surface used by teachers would be the bottom and the clean stone back would be the top side.
Can you think of any reason why I should NOT use them on my counters?
Would you use this slate if it was priced reasonably?
