How to mount marble slab on cast iron base? Need something to put the coffee cup on!

[ajonoh]

Hello!
I have a marble tabletop that needs to be mounted on a cast iron base.

The old tabletop (broke during the snow chaos two years ago) was larger and thicker and was screwed in.

Help! Now I need to fix this so I have somewhere to put my coffee cup

How would you mount the new marble tabletop?

Glue with PL400.
If you want to be able to remove the board, get a round wooden piece from some thicker glued wood. Glue it onto the stone and screw in the wooden board.

Hello, I have suffered the same fate, the marble tabletop cracked because the table happened to topple over. Where/how did you get hold of a new tabletop?

Adhere with PL400.
If you want to be able to remove the board, fix a round piece of wood from some thicker laminated wood. Glue it to the stone and screw in the wooden board.

Thanks! Very good tip with the piece of wood! Then I can take the board inside for winter storage

Hi, I have suffered the same fate, the Grandma table top cracked because the table accidentally fell over. Where/how did you get a new top?

Sorry to hear it broke

I found a bargain on Blocket! A tabletop that belonged to a small side table:

The top is only 40 cm in diameter. The old one was 60. But it works for coffee

Thank you, that was a quick reply!

Personally, I would have skipped PL400 and used TEC7, it bonds at least as well and doesn't leave any hard-to-remove residues if you ever need to replace the board.

Read about TEC7 on their website and it seems great! Thanks for the tip!
