Oak Veneers
« on: January 12, 2014, 05:46:00 PM »
Does anyone use oak as veneers in a glass bow?  I have a piece that has some meaning to it for me and I  was thinking of having a bow built with veneers from this board?  Will Oak work?  All comments appreciated...thanks

Sure will and it will be special for you

Just put two sets of quarter sawn white oak veneers on my thread at the Sponsors classified. I saw a bow last summer that had QSWO veneers and thought it was rather stunning.

I think you could use about any wood for veneers.
