I need to make a small bezel to replace a flat ash tray / lighter assembly which I am replacing with a duplex lighter / usb port. I will fabricate a new lower holder which will be topped with said bezel.
I plan on using birch plywood for the bezel which I thought I might cover with a nice veneer of cherry, walnut, or mahogany depending on what looks best with the existing black plastic base. (I found a nice assortment pack at Woodcraft.) What is the best way ( and product ) to apply the veneer to the plywood? It is not a pre-glued product.
The piece will be about three by seven inches with about a two by six cut out center. I plan on applying the veneer before cutting out the center section.
I never have enough DC outlets in the motor home and don't need the ashtray.
