    Default Laminating Very Tight Curve

    I'm looking at a project which calls for a very tight curved lamination. This U shape with flat top and sides is roughly 19mm inside width. I'm thinking less than 1mm veneer & epoxy. Timber is beech. Any tips and prior experiences would be welcome. Thank you.
