Showed up to install a laminate c-top that the homeowners decided to just order themselves (without consulting me) so it did not allow for scribing (ordered too short)–so I came up with a way to make it work:

nice...
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!

So, what is it? Caulk, plastic molding that you curved with heat, or an optical illusion?
There is caulk between the backsplash and the wall.The left end of the counter is where I ripped a 1/4" hickory filler and cut it into 4 pieces to follow the top and the backsplash. I used molding glue and a 23ga. gun to assemble it.

Thanks, and yeah, if I look carefully, I can see where the pieces join. That I couldn't see it at first is a testimony to your nice "save".
If fixes look about as good as...doing it right the first time, then we have suceeded.Those 1/4" pieces were cut with a good 80 tooth 10" blade and a continuous sacrificial fence to keep the little pieces from flying.I posted the pic thinking it could be a situation other BTer's might run into. Just one more item for the Bag 'O Tricks.
