First time making purfling to match a repair.
Problem: couldn’t get it to bend without delaminating and cracking.
Veneer is 6 plies using 4 of SMs 0.023” and 2 maple at 0.025” cut to 1 1?2 inches wide. Glue up with Titebond Veneer glue, final stack at 0.140” thick. Let it dry 2 days, cut a few 0.090” strips, then used some super soft just at the waist and despite going very slowly the strip skewed, delaminated and started to break plies.
What am I missing? Dimensions, # of plies, wrong glue, wrong procedure, just can’t be done?
