: will the glues used in the 20's
: or 30's react with MAS slow cure.

Hi Bert, sounds cool. Do a swatch test with a short length of the veneer on a scrap of plywood. I would test their fish glue http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.asp?SID=&ccurrency=2&page=20019&category=1,110,42965 (since that's what they suggest) and yellow glue too.

Do a thin epoxy precoat and then a quick swatch of glass on top. Why chance it at this point :)

Why inlay at all? Surface mount and sand.
