Hello all, gave myself a problem today, was shooting a veneered oak door in to its lining and planed through to the timber underneath on the lock side, is there anything I can do, like re veneer with iron on edging?

Cheers

doubtful m8,maybe try painting on the grain using some stain etc?
 
I did see a routering cock up covered up well by a chippie that brought some acrilic artist paint in and painted some fake Ash grain on some bare MDF on the edge of some veneered Ash furniture ,Phew that pulled us out of the ****,

those doors normally state 3-6mm max
really difficult to sort out as any repair is likely to look worse or do more damage :eek:

I'd plane it down a little further to the underlying timber.
Then go to another door that had an adequate sizing and railsaw the side off.
Then glue that to the bodged door using masking tape to hold it on.

If no door available then a length of oak run through the planer/thicknesser and trimmed in a similar fashion.

The 50mm wide iron on veneer edging should do it, used it on shelving before and gave good result
 
Thank you all, I spoke to a joiner mate today whom strangely enough did the same thing last week, he used the 50mm veneer and said it worked a treat, thank you all for your responses and ideas.
