Thanks Mike,
The extra weight is due to inexperience and fear really but mainly inexperience…
It is a great learning experience for me. The veneer part alone is worth the journey.
Veneering has been a dark area for me and still is to a great extent but there is a slight ray of light now :) I am sure I will continue to experiment with veneers one way or another. We will see where it takes me.
