Philco 86
#29

I got some walnut 1/16" veneer from Constantines, but I cannot apply it to the insides of the grill piece. Every time I try to cut it from a template it cracks. This is driving me nuts. I can cut straight lines with tape on the backside but not the curved cuts I need. I'm about ready to give up and take it to someone who restores old furniture. Does anyone have a good way of doing this? I'm talking about the scroll cuts in the middle of the grill opening.
Thanks,
George
