O.K. lets try that again. I need to press some veneer to some half round pedestals that are constructed of laminated mdf that I have turned down to about a 4" radius. In my initial experiment I put the core in the press, flat side down, on top of a piece of 1/4" material that elevated it off the platen. the long grain of the veneer ran the length of the core, and I was careful not to overhang. I did not use any kind of caul. Drawing a vac, I got good pressure over most of the curve, with the exception of the area right along the flat face of the pedestal, along the platen. There I had a bit of "tenting" of the bag, and no pressure on the veneer. Any of you guys have experience in this sort of application? Thanks for your advice!!
