Hello From Greensboro

I'm Mike in Greensboro. Stumbled on this site while doing a search. It looks interesting with lots of friendly people. I have 35 years under my belt. I started out producing for other furniture companies with the occational custom job. With the full impact of NAFTA and GAP my cheese was moved and my focus changed to custom work. For the past 20 years I've done some very satisfying custom projects. It looks like the focus here is solid wood but I love veneer. Let me say that again, I LOVE veneer. The custom work I do is generally designed by someone else. For my own wellbeing I design and make jewelry boxes. I have a shop on Etsy that has worked well for that. I've also done some gunstocks. I'll attach some photos of some of my favorites.

Welcome.
Gad to hear a veneer expert as I am just dipping my toe in. Really, jumping in over my head without treading water as my first project is new dashboards for my Triumph. Vacuum bag, curved cold molded. Not sure what kind of finish. Leaning to 2K clearecoat. With environment from sub zero to not far from 200, 0 to 100% humidity and UV, pretty rough. The OEM finish turned the walnut orange.
