I need to wrap a vanity with teak and would like to know how's been that experience for some of you here.
I guess it's the over-cautious that I am who wants to make sure I don't run into any snags. And the main reason for this is because I've heard teak can't be planed like other woods that are not as oily and water-resistant as this. I also know you have to use some polyurethane glue, gorilla, or something of that sort.
What about taping the edges of the carcass built out of prefinished ply with teak tape as well? the tape is veneered, not backing. I like to think I can use wood pva, anything else seems messy.
The boards I'm using are 3/4 dressed but i need to make panels @20" deep by 42" wide approx for the top, so three boards trimmed at about 6.75" would make up a panel. They hopefully don't need that much planing for they will be dressed and joined with bisquets and also come pretty much already at the final dimension.
Just wanted to hear thoughts.
Thank you
Daniel
