Question;

Because of the unevenness of the walls, sockets etc. I'm wondering how to maneuver the worktop in place. I'm probably going to go thin ply (to screw and fix it all together) with a 18mm (ish) mdf on top.

Would it be worth cutting the ply into 2 to help get it in place? And if so where would you cut? An ⅛ off one end? Down the middle? A ⅓?

Or is there another trick?
Cheers

If you cut it to get it in place, make sure the cut sits directly over a noggin/joist (those words seem overkill for a bench top but you know what I mean) so that the join is supported and doesn't sag when everything's in place

Yeah. I guess it doesn't matter too much as long as it's supported.

Mainly thinking a sort of domino at one end would be the easiest and most discreet way to do it.
