Help Finding Sink Cover

[Sebourn]

I'm looking for suggestions in finding a sink cover that fits. I do not see any identifying markings or labels on the sink. I went backto my dealer and he ordered a two piece type but it did not fit, looked cheap, and was going to cost more than a new sink so I would not take them.
It looks pretty common. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you know anyone with wood working skills?

Ask if they could/would made a butcher block type for you.

I purchased a large cutting board on Amazon (1/4" thick) and cut my own. I made a template out of a piece of lauan plywood first. This thing is HEAVY DUTY! I'm thinking about splitting it so I have access to half of the sink though. I also drilled a large hole (not in picture) at the top left so I can get my fingers in there for easy removal.

Thanks Ford and Brad. I was thinking about butcher block for the range top but thought at the sink it would be too thick. I like the 1/4" thick cutting board but hadn't thought of Amazon. I'll check that out.

I did the same thing as Brad, with excellent results. The cutting board material (some kind of poly-something) is easy to cut using ordinary woodworking tools. Just be aware it makes a lot of plastic sawdust. You can file and sand the edges after cutting to make it smoother. A suggestion on the rounded corners...If you're not handy with a compass, you might find something in your kitchen the same diameter as the corners to trace the curves with. I found a cereal bowl with a rim exactly the right size. Good luck. By the way, Brad, yours looks great.

X2-
If you have a Jig saw and a work bench/area, make a template and get a hunk of plastic.

I was in the same boat. Made this today. Locks in nice. Easy and cheap! Color is a bit off but I will add a little dark stain and try to get it closer.

Here is the one my DH made for our sink.
Bought an oversized cutting board from a restaurant supply store.
It is 1/2 inch thick. It sits on its edge next to the fridge beside the stove when not in use.
Notice the spray attachment to the faucet. It allows me to direct the water into the cutout.
Cutout is necessary for removing the board. Otherwise, very difficult to get out plus I can run the water while it is in place.
Easy to keep clean also.

Looks like I'm redoing mine. All of yours looks great.

I mis-spoke in my post above...I used 1/2" cutting board, not 1/4"

This is the one I purchased: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Our dealer got us these wood covers from I believe camco, they have adjustable grommets on the bottom to fit any configuration.

Looks very nice, thanks for sharing

Part of the reason I needed a cover over the sink is for counter space. We have a Wildwood 26TBSS (triple bunks, super slide, 29 foot). The only outlet I have near the stove/kitchen is on the left side of the sink near the door. I needed a place to set the coffee pot in the morning. This cutting board gives me a solid place to put the coffee pot, use the sink faucet if needed and use the stove at the same time if I want. When the coffee is finished, I put the cutting board on edge next to the stove and use the sink. Not having counter space is a real pita. I am trying to determine if there is a way to add any extra other than the sink top or the stove top.

Looks like my plan is staying the same. My sink doesn't have a ledge to do flush. Oh well, put the next coat of darker stain on and it's close. 10 dollar mod is always good.

Treelady,
I looked up your TT and your door/sink area looks pretty much like our FR Wildwood 230BH X-Lite. Ours came with a flip up counter extension located on the end of the counter. It has been usefully but when in up position, you can't come in the door, but no problem so far. I don't have a picture but Google our model and you will see it in some of the dealer pictures. It should work for you.

I had made in for our first camper from a cutting board I got at SAMs. Made it to fit inside the sink, that way it didn't slide around when moving. Took a router with a 1/4 in round over and eased all the edges.

I made mine out of clear lexan - they sit just slightly recessed, almost flush.

I made 2 pcs, so that one side can be used as a counter and the other as a sink.

The lexan is flexible enough that you can push down at the seam and get ahold of them to pull them up.

You can do this very easy with a jigsaw and a belt sander. I made a template out of cardboard first to get the size correct.
