So today I thought of how to drill a neat hole through the veneer, as the switch hole got veneered over. I have very little woodworking experience, so I figured a spade bit with tipped cutting edges would do the job. Which it did very well, no veneer edge breakage etc. Just drilled a pilot hole first and then used the bit.
Now need to glue the grill cloth.
Will meke it a separate topic.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
