Nice contrast and accent! How many veneers will you get from that glue up? You use a bandsaw to cut them?
I don't know yet, I think 14, with the kerf at .040 it adds up fast
I'm trying a new way of resawing and grinding.
4 machines
Edge sander--flatten the side of the billet to take out saw marks
band saw-- resaw to .045--- only 4 so far, going to try to go thinner .040/.038 tomorrow.
baby drum sander to .035-- 1 pass
hog sander to .030--1 pass--hog sander takes out the snipe.
I fiddled around with the pressure rollers the other day and made it better on the Baby Drum sander.
Keep doing those steps
