Nice counter top extensions as well Marwayne (in addition to everything else). 

There is a cabinet builder across the street from my work that leaves scraps out for people to take. I'm hoping to use some scraps to build some extensions in the near future.

For the support arms, do you have one on each side or do you find just one support arm is enough?

I have made a cutting board that serves as a serving tray when turned around.
 
But I also want to be able to put it out of the way when not in use.

Here's a photo of a cover I made. It's alternating strips of cherry and walnut with a cherry skirt. There are plastic feet at each corner.

Hey, I forgot to ask you: did you order the new counter top from FR, have it made locally, or do it yourself? 

It looks great.

Got one from FR.  Same one that was in it before, they just didn't cut the hole for the stove but went ahead and cut the holes for the faucet and sink for us!

I got a cutting board from Wallyworld big enough to extend past all 4 sides, squared off the sides since it was a bit roundish in shape, mounted some 1/2" x 5" wood pieces on edge to the sides (stained) to raise it up, and then some small rubber adhesive protectors to the bottom to protect the countertop and keep it from moving.  Protects the stove, gives me a cutting board to use when cooking, more counter space when not cooking, and doubles as a carrying tray for taking stuff outside.

Woodpod,

We bought a food grade piece of High Density Polyethylene.  I routed out grooves in it for the top and smoothed the edges.  Underneath, I carefully measured for legs that sit inside the sink, not outside and fastened them on with stainless steel screws.  The legs are also made of food grade HDPE.  It works great doesn't slide, makes for more flat space and cuts up stuff as well.

We just bought our 177!  Love, love love it!  On a previously owned RV, we had a cutting board with a non slip back that we placed over our stove top.  On our 177 stovetop I noticed that the knobs stick up higher than the burner grills.  Has anyone found a cutting board that will work with this?  Additional counter space would be awesome!  Would love to hear your solutions.]]> Tue, 07 May 2013 18:00:13 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3462&PID=32884#32884
