    The dust collector with small diameter hose will not have the suction equal to a shop vac. But it will certainly draw in saw dust.

    Ordinarily I cut the veneer larger than the substrate, then trim afterward.
    If you absolutely can't do that, shooting a couple 23 gauge pins thru the veneer should hold it. If you have a 23g pinner
