This may not be the right forum, but I need help with how to support a granite eating counter that will span 23 inches beyond the
cabinets.  My contractor has never had granite installed before.  (This is a lake condo remodel)  Someone mentioned a steel tubular frame that can be attached to the lower cabinet and cantelevers out to support the granite. Does anyone know where you get something like this?  Do you have any other suggestions on how to support the granite without having to use posts.  Thanks for any input!

Korbels would work, but you need an engineer's spec on this...thickness of granite would help with weight factor.

Glad to be of service,
Mark
