Today at the junkyard I scored a 8' slab of black soapstone that used to be a chemistry lab worksurface. I'm planning on cutting it into a top for my Egg table for the back porch (carbide bits/blades can cut soapstone). Apparently it is highly temperature resistant, as well as being well suited to outdoors with the temp and humidity swings. I'll post (probably next spring) when I have it turned into the table.

Looks great! Are you going to use the sinks too. We looked at putting some soapstone on our kitchen island. It is a really nice finish. You have to oil it sometimes.

Up top I'd mount a faucet (actually came with a couple of the old high neck chemistry lab faucets) so from above the table you'd never know it wasn't permanent. then I have to figure out where to send the waste water.......
If you could find one of these it would sit right on top.
