<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sparky, post: 407246, member: 8646&quot;]Oi. If it&#039;s a more modern glue, I&#039;m assuming I would be stuck trying to remove the entire piece of veneer, cleaning the sub-wood, flattening the veneer and regluing. Or should I just try flattening using steam first - the mirror will hold it down?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t like perfectly restored pieces, although I respect the work that went into them greatly. I like the scarred and banged up stuff. Way more character, and if it&#039;s lasted this long, it&#039;s much better to have than IKEA lol. I have a huge old oak sideboard, likely 10 years or so newer than this piece, that is this way. It&#039;s not veneered, but rather solid oak (parts quarter sawn). The top is 3&quot; thick and warped, the pulls are tarnished, and the finish is dull. And I love it. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
