You have no idea how much that clears everything up. Thank you!
so now does anyone know where i can purchase the 1/4 inch bookmatched cap to put underneath the veneer?

In other words - the structural piece(cap) will remain intact while the cosmetic(veneer) can be anything you want.

Just like one of those Steak-um sandwich slices. look real close at one.
only the very most top later is an actual slice. The rest is some type of
ground processed patty.
