David Veatch – Vacuum Veneering and Laminating
Vacuum systems use the air pressure that is all around us to apply smooth, uniform and powerful pressure to panels and forms for glue-up. However vacuum systems have a reputation for being complex and expensive. David will discuss all of the equipment needed to make a simple, reliable and inexpensive vacuum system and address common misconceptions on using vacuum pressing for veneer and lamination of flat and curved pieces.
