Meadowhawk in the House !!!!

OK, sorry it actually is .5mm, I was thinking of some flame veneer I bought from Rockler in a little 8x6 pack for practicing.

Sweet vindication!

Thank you!

Btw. almost forgot: There's a method of applying (pva) wood glue on both the veneer and the surface you wanna attach it to, let it dry and then melt it on using a flat iron.

It's the method I'd prefer on a small surface like a tiltback headstock.

I did that on a speaker rebuild I did and it works great. I just figured for something this small that you can clamp all the way around it would be easier to clamp.

And if you use that method make sure to use some craft paper, etc between the iron and veneer and keep the iron moving.
