How do I do this? Table base---“form” to be covered with veneer…
I will be making a coffee table with a veneered reverse “C” and (regular facing) “C”, attached in the middle, base. I was initially thinking of building the base out of ¾” plywood—24 pieces of ¾” plywood glued together. Then I was going to cover this with bending plywood, and then veneering the plywood. Now I am thinking about still using the ¾” plywood with some type of “foam” board. I would like to use plain wood glue like Tite-Bond 2 or Tite-Bond 3 to glue the plywood and this foam board----perhaps alternating plywood and the foam board for the 18”. Which foam board would I use?
Then this plywood + foam base will be covered with the 1/8” bending plywood….covered with the veneer. What kind of foam board do I use-which can be glued with Tite-Bond 2 or 3? On the plus side, this plywood + foam base will be lighter in weight than a solid plywood base.
Thanks,
Phil
