Hi,

Formica and all laminates come in 8x4 or 10x4 sheets. It looks like you need half a sheet.  Try a DIY timber suppliers shop to see if they have any half sheets or offcuts. Failing that try a local joinery or cabinet making company where you may be able to get some help.

If you want a specific colour or pattern you will probably have to buy a full sheet unless you are very lucky with any of the above. 

Good luck with the search

Hi art

We had a hole in our table where a book fell out of the top locker.  We've had it filled in and it's quite good but may recover in the future.  Did you put the new laminate over the top of the old laminate or did you have some way of removing the old finish?Jean

Hi, Jean, I laminated both sides and I left the old laminate on, just scored it heavily to make sure it stuck, trim on the edge was a bit hard to put back but just heated it up with my wifes hairdrier.Art

Thanks for that 'art'. Unfortuneately our table does not have a trim but is wood with laminate on the top so if we put laminate on top we would have two laminate edges which might not look good.  Can't put an edging on wither as the edge is shaped.  Will probably put up with it as it is as the alternative seems to be to make a new table.  thanks again
