[Elecraft] Hardboard (Masonite) bench tops

[WILLIS COOKE]

I have used the Melamine coated board on bench tops in
the past.  It is easy to clean and does not absorb
water or chemicals easily.  It is a little more
expensive, but can last for years and looks quite
nice.  I cut it to size and hold the corners in place
with small nails.
