Slip is right.... there are edgebanding machines and they come in all sizes...i worked in large commercial millwork shop and it could handle a continuous flow of door slabs to be edged...self feeding....routers that trimmed both edges...... adjusting the cutters........checking glue temperatures... conveyer belt...but for my shop and many small to medium projects the iron on has got the job done. Its low teck but i have it down pat...easy job really.

Mail room dividers that I built, had 72, 3/4 plywood shelves, edgebanded with the iron-on tape..... was just a few hours work.
Customer wanted to put labels on front edge of each shelf so 3/4 thick.

Wow. I am going to build something very close to this to organize all of my glass color at my studio. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks guys.

Googan question....

Why are you using plywood and not MDF or even poplar or pine?
Is it cost driven?

Bruce, even a short video of you applying the edging would be great, it sounds pretty straight forward, but I may see you doing something that raises a question...but don't embarrass yourself in front of the other subs, ....I wouldn't want them knowing you were weird.

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

poplar and pine can warp way worse than plywood might.
Some clients can afford a no particle board option so veneer core plywood is good. I use it on almost everything as I build a lot of cases.
That's OK Gilly, they already know I'm weird.
Just use an Iron and chase it with a block of wood, you'll be fine.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
