Carl,If your panel is not attached to anything at this point which would collapse or distort it I would put the two ply on the panel in the bag with regular glue. The only thing you have to deal with is getting the two ply in position on the inside radius. What I would do is try to get it taped or pushed into position as well as possible, then turn on the vacuum but only pull a low vacuum, 5 to 10 HG. At this vacuum you can push and shove the two ply further into position. Increase the vacuum again, adjust the veneer, and keep on going until the two ply is completely in position, then run the vacuum up to full pressure. Try this as a dry run to get the feel of it. My rule is, if I can comfortably get it in the bag I always prefer to do it that way.SincerelyDarryl Keil: I am on the end of a complex project. Decided today, a piece : currently covered with backer veneer, needs a face veneer. The face : would require a 6 piece tape up then 2-ply. It is on a 18 inch : wide , by 30 inch long with two inside curves on a 5 inch radius. : First thought is to add 2-ply to lamination with the curved form in : the bag. Second thought is Darryl's recent suggestion of contact : cement/PVA. Can I get this method to work on an inside curve? All my : experience with contact cement,(not 2-ply) has been bad. But for : some reason I am reluctant to use the bag. Accuracy? Also afraid : inside curve my not press well, since lamination is 1" thick. : Comments? Suggestions?: Thanks, Carl
