Abstract: Disclosed is a molding with a built-in illumination member. The illumination member may be an ordinary light or series of lights, or a repeating message board made of light emitting diodes, or a compound that glows under ultraviolet light, or a compound that glows in the dark, or the like. The molding may be the front edge molding on a worktop.

Abstract: A modular worktop, and method of assembly, including a surface member, a front edge, and a backsplash, the components preferably being removably attached to each other. Each of the surface member, front edge, and backsplash may be selected from a predetermined group of decorative surfacing options, resulting in a worktop that is aesthetically pleasing to the consumer or person selecting the components. Additionally, each of the components is sized and configured so as to bring assembly and installation within the skill range of the average consumer. Because the front edge is removably attached, the front edge is changeable at the discretion of the consumer, for example, for aesthetic reasons.

Abstract translation: 模块化的工作台面和组装方法，包括表面构件，前边缘和后挡板，这些部件优选地可拆卸地相互连接。 表面构件，前边缘和后挡板中的每一个可以从预定组的装饰性铺面选项中选择，导致在消费者或选择构件的人在美学上令人愉快的工作台。 此外，每个组件的尺寸和构造被设计成使得组装和安装在普通消费者的技能范围内。 因为前边缘是可拆卸地附接的，所以前缘可以由消费者自由地改变，例如，出于美学原因。
