Hi guys,
Posting as I am after some help from experienced wood workers. I have been trying to resolve this for weeks.
I am after spotted gum top cabinet doors in my kitchen but I have been warned not to use solid timber due to cupping.
People recommend veneer, however I do not like the clear look of veneer as there is not much character.
1) I was hoping to stick 2 pieces of solid 22mm thick x 300 wide timber together using wood glue then poly over the top (to further bind them), this would be my preferred option, do people think this would lead to issues down the road (if I let the wood sit for 2-3 weeks after milling?)
If this is not an option
2) Use the same timber above (22mm thick) stick them together then router out the middle, 10mm deep and stick 9mm plywood in?
....I also have some 2200 tall x 500 wide pantry doors which I was looking to do the same with, I am just not sure they would be rigid enough using the 1st method? (hopefully so, as I would prefer to use that method if possible)
Any advice would be hugely appreciated !
