How can I apply heat to iron-on veneer when there's no room for an iron?
It's not accessible with even a small iron. How about a hair dryer?

I have done it with a heat gun and a piece of wood to press it down. Just do not set it on paint stripping temp.

Most iron on veneer needs the pressure so hair driers heat guns etc have to
be out. A fairly large iron with a bit replaced with a tool strong enough to press it without bending. I suppose one could not attache it before one fits the actual piece to whatever you are making , could it?
