But doesn't that sag over time? And boy, it sure is heavy. How did you get the whole core assembly flat? MDF is not allow in my shop for anything other than an example of what not to do. Yes, it sags, look at all the computer desks built out of this stuff. Flattening the core is my next step. The pieces were originally thickness planed, however, I will need to go over the entire assembly with a planer, and will end up with a slightly thinner core than I had originally planed on, but with 4 layers of veneer, it will still be adequately thick. It is a big job. I just made my first real known screw up (as opposed to those made yet at the moment unknown). I tried to glue up too many pieces in the final step, should have been patient and done this in two steps. The pressure required to close all the joints was too much for the end piece and it broke. Most of it was to be cut off anyway so maybe I will get lucky and it won't matter.
