Subject : Veneering for raised panels
Posted : 2013-01-14 9:42 PM

Following up on my last post about veneering on a solid wood surface; it seems that one should try to stay away from veneering on solid wood and choose a more stable surface. In that case, lets say I use mdf. Do you raise the panel first and then apply the veneer? If so, do you try to use one piece of veneer and let the bag suck the veneer around the raised portion or do you first veneer the panel and when that's done add piece of veneer over the raised portion? Is their a book that shows how to do this?

I haven't tried it but I have seen a substrate like mdf or pc,
with a mitered of matching solid stock,
then the veneer either single or 2 ply , and then, you machine the raised panel.

Veneering a raised panel is an especially challenging situation, I hope that's not what you mean. Try smoothing a piece of typing paper over a raised panel to see what it would be like.

You could two ply over quartered mahogany, then raise the panel, but the bevels will be quartered mahog and not the veneer; otherwise I'd settle for veneered flat panels.
