Thank you. I was not sure what a phenolic backer was. And now I know.

What’s the best way to get the wood on wood veneer to lay flat since it’s shipped in a roll. Also what glue would you recommend. I’m using pressure with clamps and rolling glue onto a sewing machine table. Thanks.

Hello! Before getting started on your project you will want to roll out your veneer flat and place a few heavy objects to help flatten it out. Leave your veneer like this for a day or so. Any high quality contact cement will do.
