Quote:As for the cabinet, if I can't hide the cracking I may just go a bit darker on the curved sides.

Kirk, with cracks like that in the waterfall veneer what are some methods you use to hide it? I consider that issue to usually be remedied by veneer replacement, but if it can be made less noticeable, that would often be preferable.

In your last picture the cracks look less noticeable, not sure if that is the lighting, or if you had done something to the cracked area already.
