I'm not giving up. I did four cabinets two weeks ago and the last one was miles ahead better than the first, which means I'm learning. I think the biggest improvement I can make is to take my time. Applying two coats of glue intead of just one. Wait for the glue to haze before applying veneer so it won't curl up. Use a lower heat instead of rushing with the highest setting. Waiting overnight for the glue to cure before applying finish.

Thanks for the detailed feedback Bill.

Gar.
