CUTTING VENEERS.
Three Methods Are Used-Sawins,
Slieing and the Rotary Cut.

S'S'S d''A t'S wv.
Veneer is very thin lumber The raw
material Is usually purchased in logs
OF random lengths Some are cut into
flitches aud in turn sawed into thin
sections called sawed veneer In other
cases the logs. after being steamed
are shaved to sharp knives. This meth
cd produces sliced veneer. Neither
of these processes is ms extensively
used as the third. the rotary cut. al
though for certain purposes they are
of importance.
The structure of the wood, the size
veneer is designed largely determine
the process employed Some foreign
woods are very hard and. like soft do
nestle woods-the conifers. for instance
often produce the best veneer when
sawed, while for other woods the slic-
Ing method is preferred. Where the
product is for fine exterior finish and
has to be selected and matched ac-
cording to the figure or grain. saving
is the favorite method
The rotary cut process IN similar In
principle to the slicing process. The
log. after being steamed, is revolved
against fixed knife the length Of the
log and wide sheets are shaved Off.
Veneers are cut into number OF
thicknesses. The domestic woods. ro-
tary cut. range from fve-sixteenths to
one.tlftietb of an inch and the import
ed woods from three six teenths to one.

products the thickest veneer is FIVE
