I'm building a bar top out of cherry boards planed to about 3/4" (really closer to 13/16 to leave room for sanding).

I plan on bonding it to a 3/4" plywood base for strength.

Im curious how you guys would go about this? I was thinking lots of wood-glue spread evenly across the plywood, and then applying the cherry boards to it.... and maybe running a few screws through the back to provide compression while the glue cures?


is there a better/more preferable way to go about this?
