I agree w/everything you said CAR. As I am in the process of remodling, etc, I am making a big effort to not buy anything MIC and it has been more work than the physical labor. They have taken all our manufacturing jobs and their products are sub par. Perhaps it’s been so long since we manufactured anything, we have come to accept their crap. But in my effort to not buy MIC, it has lead me to antique shops where I’m finding good ole made in the USA items that stand the test of time. There are too many empty factories here and that is the painful reality. People were glad to do those jobs and we had a thriving economy back then.

I honestly don’t know if they “fabricate.” I think Industrial Metal Supply is a source for contractors. I would give them a call, though. I think they can steer you in the right direction. It did say for countertops. I hadn’t seen any countertops w/the metal anywhere, so it didn’t really sink in. I kept visualizing backsplashes b/c I did see it displayed at HD and a few other places. I bet you can get countertops there at IMS. Let us know what you find out. In any case, it will be far less than HD.

Also, for anyone contemplating back splash and don’t want to do the typical tile, I saw some really cool rigidized metals at Home Depot. But they wanted way too much for it. I really liked it, but way out of our budget. Anyway, today I was at Industrial Metal Supply and they have textured/rigidized metal plates for backsplashes, matte finish w/designs. They has stainless, copper, etc. It was a fraction of HD pricing. I definitely recommend it for a different look.

FWIW, came across a list of things one should buy and not buy at Home Depot.
