I am in the process of refinishing a desk and discovered, much
to my horror, that a layer of veneer has been placed over the
original wood: ash.  The original ash was left untouched everywhere
else on the desk, except for the desktop.  What I want is to remove
the veneer from both the top and bottom of the desktop.  Unfortunately,
I have never attempted this before.  The few woodworking books I possess
fail to explain the procedure, so I would appreciate any tips from
readers of this newgroup who have stripped off veneer successfully.

Thanks in advance.
