THINNEST VENEER MADE

The thinnest veneer made I'M CONNER
cial quantities and in a general CONNER
cal way as that made from Spanish
cedar into stock for veneering cigar
boxes. There are used in this country APP
proximately 100000 feet OF Spanish
cedar annually for the making of cigar
box lumber and cigar box veneer APP
proximately JO0,OU feet of this is cut
into veneer. of which ii takes 100 sheets
to measure an inch i'm thickness. Some
OF ii IS cut SO thin that IL takes ITO sheets
to make an inch i'm thickness. Here is
10 ngure out things to take pencil and

ure of veneer cut in this thickness with
a rotary machine can be made out OF
JoO,VoO feet log measure of Spanish cedar.
Aroma of Spanish Cedar.
Even what is called the thicker cigar
box lumber is as thin as the average
thickness in veneer. About a million feet
of Spanish cedar per year is cut into n
inch in thickness and between one-fourth
and one-half a million is cut 3-l6. These
are the standard thcknesses for cigar
box lumber. taking the industry as a
whole When it comes down to the real
thin stock this is getting il down pretty
fine, and this thin stock in veneer cut
100 to ITO to the inch is used for covering
poplar and gum cigar box lumber SO as
to make it have the appearance and
some of the aroma of Spanish cedar. The
finished stock then is about IL to 3-16 i'm
thickness. No big hydraulic presses are
used for this veneering, either. The ve-

other to dry.
