 Dan,

 Questions:
 1. I used 9, 1.5 inch hemispheres 70 Duro. Each suppoets between 14 and 30
lb.
 2. The top is granite. Dinensions 21.5" x 48" x 1.25" ~ 130 LB
 3. How does it work. I just finshed it today, I will have to let you know.

 Below is a link to the sorbothane website. The hemispheres can't stick
over the edges of the support frame.

 I put the table together with a 2 x 2 inch frame.
