Hi all,
I'm planning to build a tool chest soon and am wanting to use quarter sawn tasmanian oak (or some other relatively cheapish hardwood) for it.
However, as it will feature a lot of decorative veneer work (using resawn veneer) and may also use some bent laminations i'm particularly concerned about the stability of the substrate wood used for the casework.
Does anyone know if tassie oak will be up to the task/is stable enough to be used as a base for traditional veneering?
The average thickness of my pieces is likely to be around 8-15mm, though some pieces may be up to 20-30mm thick.
Any insights would be very much appreciated as i'm very much lacking in knowledge when it comes to australian timbers.
