Fixing warped travertine panel
So I got a beautiful travertine media console from China. Everything about it worked and looked great until it settled into the house and the front panels bowed and now they can’t slide past each other. My plan right now is to remove them, put them on a flat surface, wet them, and then place a weight on the top part of the bow and let it rest for a day and see if it flattens out. Concerns are that there is a plywood inlay (see pic) and that it expanded due to climate differences and that’s what caused the bowing. I’m thinking I might need to cut a slot in the middle for an expansion joint. Has anyone else ever tried to in-warp travertine or something similar? Any recommendations? submitted by /u/Winston_The_Pig [link] [comments]
