Thanks George! I’ve talked myself out of HHG though. Don’t get me wrong, it makes perfect sense but it’s also something else in the shop to store when not in use and something I wmay never use again. Like I said, worst case with PVA is a fee swipes with a hand plane and move on without the veneer. If it was wxpensive veneer that might not be the case but I got it for <$20 on ebay so if I trash it, I trash it and it costs less than the HHG part. I don’t have the time for yard sales and even if I did, the chances of finding the pot around here are slim to none.
