I didn't get a lot of support on OWWM, and kind of expect less, here, but you never know. There's a lot of really professionally talented people here who don't say much.
I'm re-attaching loose 2 ply veneers "everywhere" on a factory piece made ca. 1926. I'm hammer veneering it with hot hide glue, because that system is simple, elegant, and there's really no better method for veneers that were originally laminated with hot hide glue; especially if the only way to get glue into extensive areas is a small slit. When posted on OWWM i had Q's, but have since essentially worked them out, so this is intended as discussion. But advice welcome if you actually have some deep experience. Anyone else still use the process?
