I've recently finished up veneering my sub enclosure in Spanish Cedar veneer. I used 3/4" bit to round over the edges and ran one piece of veneer over the sides. Then did the top and left the bottom unfinished (downfiring). I had to wrap across the grain since my veneer piece wasn't long enough to wrap parallel to the grain.
While my results are pretty good, I'm wondering if anybody has tips on how to make sure veneer is wrapped tight around rounded corners? I did my best to pull the veneer tight, but in the finished product there was some unfilled void right where the corners are.
Also for finishing question, would finishing spanish cedar with just shellac (I want to keep the color as light as possible) be a good idea or are there any other recommendations?
Thanks
