Learn how to make a concrete countertop for your kitchen

Measure and cut a piece of vinyl-coated particleboard called “melamine” to fit the sink cavity opening and drop it onto the cleats to serve as a bottom for the form. The melamine should be flush with any existing surface on the cabinet. Its vinyl-coated surface will not stick to the concrete. Later, after the concrete countertop has set and you have removed the ledgers, you can easily remove the ledgers and melamine.
