Quick status update... Started veneering; what I found works best here (espcially because there are a lot of splits; I need something a little less "instant") is to glue it to the hardboard, and weight it down (45 kg of cat litter works well!)... Then after the glue has dried for a few hours, break out the iron and smooth out the bumps (if any).

Great tip, Reece- I never thought to re-activate the glue with heat; I knew it could be done with hide/fish glues, but not with plain 'ol PVA glue.
