Mikes, Sams, and Terry's Cabinet restoration chronicles
#19

Hey Kirk, quit spending so much time on the cabinets! You're falling way behind on your electrocutions!!! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

Gary, 
 That is not true. I got shocked 2 times this week. Terry tells me to touch things under the chassis and I get whapped. Icon_lol
I shall update it...  Icon_crazy

Veneering day. The hard part is all the veneers. The burl is done and I just dry fitted everything. Now to roll each piece of veneer and the top of the chairside with glue and wait an hour for both surfaces to be slightly dry. Then I will put all the pieces back on and iron the top. This will wet the glue and permanently adhere the veneer to the cabinet. For that I use Titebond 1. Works great. You will need an iron for this so go buy one. If you use the spouses you will get beaten when they iron and gets ick all over the cloths.
