You just need a thicknessing jig Jim, I just use a couple of blocks of wood, a clamp & a plane blade, there are plenty of examples on the Internet.

This one was the first to pop up on a Google image search which should give you a good idea.

Just cut your veneer slightly over sized & keep moving the blade in a little every time you've pulled the veneer through until it's the thickness you want.


Hope tha helps.
