Copper is an interesting idea!
Yeah, I think some sort of screw is the only 100% positive way. If I do go ahead with this plan, it's going to have to be on the basis of being permanent. Construction adhesive *should* work, but I've had one negative experience before. I might see if I can steal a piece of wall paneling from a hidden spot to test.
The other thing I will need to be careful about is checking for square, plumb and level. I think it's best to make a template first. I've sure seen how out of whack counters can be.
Actually, just thinking a bit more, I wonder if sort of double-sided tape would work? Doesn't need to be a really strong mechanical bond, it just needs to be held up against the wall.
