Veneered Frames - continued

All the frame lenghts have been in the veneer press for 8 hours; are taken out and left to dry overnight.
Each lenght is cut out and trimed.
The veneers are now "cleaned-up". I find the best grits are 180 and 360, to achieve a good finish. 180 grit removes enough top material without the disaster of sanding through the veneer.
Finally the lenghts are rebated and profiled ready for assembly into frames. They will then be stained and varnished etc. etc.
