Hi Group, Looking to put some Birdseye Maple veneer on top of a

You already received some good replies to this post, yes?
It's possible that whatever server he's using is slow,
and the replies hadn't appeared yet (or his original
post, leading him to think it hadn't gone thru).
Anyway, to the question at hand: are we talking about
putting new veneer on top of a new dresser, or new
veneer on top of an existing dresser, or trying to put
existing veneer back onto an existing dresser?
If it's the last case, trying to re-adhere existing
veneer that has come unstuck and warped, I think he's
doomed to failure. Old veneer is very brittle, I doubt
the trick of running a steam iron over it will work.

WE removed the old veneer which was pretty badly damaged and was going
to replace it with some that I'm looking at on evil-bay which happens
to be buckled. Jim
