I just have to stop for a moment to make a recommendation (NFI) for a vendor
that I'm using for veneer. I replaced the veneer on the dash of my Spit
with some veneer over two years ago. Looks great. This month, I embarked
on a new project to veneer the door caps with the same material, so I called
the same vendor. Not only did he still have some of the same stock, he
remembered my name and where I lived! The shipment of a single 188-inch
long by 9-1/4 wide piece of veneer of "Anegre Figured Tan" arrived today for
a grand total of $21.64, including shipping! Well pack and protected, it
came rolled and protected in a corrugated cardboard sleeve. The veneer is a
perfect match to the dash (came from the same tree). I am taking photos of
the project for an upcoming submission for and article in "Spitfire and
GT-6" magazine for veneering my door caps with the same wood as the dash.
Look to B&B Rare Woods of Lakewood, CO, call at (303) 986-2585 and ask for
Stacy. Or look to their web site is www.wood-veneers.com. Again, NFI, but
I do like good quality and excellent customer service.
