"joint strip" usually about £7.00 from wicks or b&q made in a variety of finishes to match the work top

Re: Whats this called?
Ahh cool - thanks - that's the one - but I've just put strip joint in Google and got some rather strange results!
This looks like what we need - unless anybody has got some good ideas how we can join them together?

Re: Whats this called?
My dad used to be a kitchen fitter.
one end screws in to the end of the length of work top, and is pushed in to place towards the cuved edge piece
I'm talking about part "D"

it's very expensive to buy the machinery to do that upwards of £250 and if not done correctly first time round the joint will swell up and open after a short time
