Well, I did it again...I was suppose to only route both side edges and the front edge of the top of my dresser, but I got into a routine and did the back edge as well. Thus, I'll have to cut off about 3/4" and glue on a matching strip. I'll need to get a new piece of wood though as I don't have any that match the grain and color. That'll be in the next few days.
In the meantime, I've been thinking of ways I could glue the strip on, because the cove profile leaves only about 3/16" of flat surface for the clamp to grab onto, and that probably wouldn't be strong enough to withstand clamping pressure (Jatoba notwithstanding). What's the best way to clamp on a repair strip in this type of situation?
