Subject : veneering top of tall cabinet
Posted : 2012-08-21 10:03 AM

I have a cabinet thats 13x9x62 inches and have used veneer vacuum press and done all sides. I am now wondering how to do the small area which is the top of the cabinet. wanted to use vacuum bag, but dont know how to set this up. Do I stand cabinet upright and pull bag over and around it with platem thats a bit shorter than cabinet? didnt think using clamps was the way to go, because if cabinet isnt perfect on top veneer may not be down on edges correctly

If it was me I would lay it down on its back on top of a long narrow platen. You could have the top overhang the platen or block the cabinet up on a piece of 2" rigid buiding insulation and allow the platen to extend beyond. Either way, do a dry run to see how it works in the bag.
