Hmm...

Should I either take the complete package or build it myself?

Complete package for 25 EUR:


DIY 19x300x1200 mm (needs to be shortened by 2 cm):




That would be 7 + 12 EUR = 19 EUR.

I almost think it's not worth the hassle to build it myself, right?

Take A, otherwise the boards aren't thick enough (2.5 vs. 1.9) and it looks stupid.

When you shop at Hornbach, at least here, you can have the board cut there. 1 cut is free. You still need

hornbach.de/shop/Kantenumleimer-weiss-22x5000-mm/5691828/artikel.html

You have to iron it on and adjust it. Whether the €2.60 savings are worth it is up to you to decide.

Nörglich took a closer look. This also justifies the higher price and significantly increases the stability. At 120 cm, a thinner board can sag if it is heavily loaded.

More like: back then having the wrong board yourself and being annoyed about the gaps. :D :oops: :D

At such a height a toaster, is it still easy to use?

edit: Oh, just for placing it. :D That stuff doesn't weigh that much, does it? The load capacity is specified up to 20kg.
