I want to build a cabinet using plywood with solid wood trim, and the only plywood that I can find available in my area (Northern New Jersey) is Oak, Maple, Pine, Walnut, Cherry, Birch or Sapele. I'd like something different - I'm thinking possibly Zebrawood or Teak. Maybe Rosewood.
First of all, does anyone know a supplier of exotic plywood within driving distance of me?
Secondly, I've built a bunch of furniture, but I've never veneered and I have no veneer tools, no vacuum press, and no veneer knowledge. I have no problem learning from Youtube on the fly, but is doing such a large scale project (probably about 66" x 18" x 28") as my first veneer project a mistake? does the "peel and stick" veneer make the process much more use friendly?
Found VeneerSupplies.com. Any experience with them?
Any advice appreciated.
