    You Can Cut It As You Would Cut Wood, Same Saws Same Blades, As Far As Attaching The Top Id Just Use 100% Silicone

    Carbide tipped bits and blades should be used to cut Corian. Accurate cuts are best made using a router guided by a straight edge. Fasten the countertops to the cabinets with dabs of silicone every 18 inches or so.

    If you plan to join two sections of Corian together, you will need professional help.
