Veneer Cutting Method and Pattern(Download)
There are a number of different ways in which hardwood veneer may be cut from the log. Depending on the manner in which a log is cut, strikingly different visual effects can be achieved with the wood's grain and characteristics. This is the beauty of working with hardwood veneer - that two logs of the same species, cut in different ways, produce distinctive, individual veneers! Of the available veneer cutting methods, the most commonly used are rotary cutting and plain slicing.
