2ply/NBL veneer over 3/4" roundover?
« on: 2 May 2007, 06:36 pm »
Hi,

I'm building a pair of speakers with 3/4" roundover and have some bamboo 2 ply and rosewood NBL veneer from formwood. I'd
like to use either of these but am concerned if it is possible to bend them around the roundovers? Both these veneers feel fairly stiff.
I'd appreciate if the more learned amongst you could tell me a trick or two on how to get them to bend over the corners.

Alternatively, i'm thinking of using a real wood for corners - if its not possible to bend the veneers. Do i have to veneer the MDF first before attaching the wood?

Thanks!
