I want to reinforce (Harden ?) some hardwood veneers to saw my logo (1.2" x .7"), for my headstock.
I tried gluing it today on to a backing piece of laminate impregnated craft paper but it still broke when working on it.
I am wondering about saturating it with super glue or epoxy. Any ideas

1/64" birch ply. I'm using some as a backer for a spalted maple rosette. I bought it at Michael's craft store, but I'm sure any craft store will sell it.

More veneer. 1 or 2 more layers and run the grain opposing.

Try LMI's fiber. You can get it in .010, .015, .020, .030 thicknesses. Very tough stuff. We use it all the time.
