Janet<p>So, I have a problem. For the top of the sideboard I used obeche wood but the walnut veneer is too strong for it and has pulled it up (red arrows). The veneer has also split (green arrow). I think the only option is to do this again with plywood or another craft wood which has more structural integrity. If I use plywood I will have to cut a strip of veneer to cover the front edge. (This will need to be a contrasting veneer as there’s not enough spare from my first batch). This is how real veneered sideboards are done, but it is adding another quite tricky thing mid-project. I think I can use the slightly bent top in the construction of the base, so all is not lost. <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/DollsHouse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DollsHouse</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/ProblemSolving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProblemSolving</span></a></p>
