A vacuum press can exert an incredible amount of pressure - depending on the size of the project something like 1300kg's worth of it apparently - the thinner the material you are working with, the more likely it will conform to your substrate (foam mould, etc), so I would personally work with a thinner ply/veneer.

Does anyone know which would be better in a vacuum bag? 4mm bamboo or 5 mm? I guess it doesn't really make a difference but I don't want to buy all this wood and find out my press isn't powerful enough
