Well I feel my "green with envy comming on Icon_sick. That looks very good Ron. You do good work. Did you get to go to Lexington? I was ready to go Friday night but woke up with "bathroom visits" I feel better not but for a while I didnt. Last Thursday I applied the veneer to my 16B cabinet. I used the titebond and the old electric iron method that you described. I am waiting for it to dry to see if it was a success. I did this on Thursday but giving it time to dry. Anyway your cabinet looks good Icon_thumbup
