Not familiar with UHB/VHB, but anything that can be fastened with screws and accepts such fasteners like wood, should be considered. I still feel that ultimate support strength falls into the dado/rabbet primary physical connection category.tjbnwi said:Naildrivingman said:I think more than a mechanical connection (screws).

I was thinking of suggesting VHB or UHB.
There is a member here who’s specialty is plastics. Hopefully they see this thread.
I’m thinking the shelves should be more of a softer polyester. I have polyester plate I use to make cutting boards.

They might be fabricated to have a side height of 19 or 20mm, but the maximum thickness of Corian you can buy is 12mm, isn't it?antss said:I disagree with some of you on the thickness.
Those shelves look to be 3/4" to me. I wouldn't even attempt that design with 1/2" thick shelves, especially in Corian. You're asking for them to sag.

No, Corian is available in 19mm thickness.
