How wood veneer is made from tree to sheets.
This was a very impressive plant tour just before judging the Veneer Tech Challenge Award.

Thanks for making this video, Scott. I'm glad I got to see inside of a veneer plant!
This video is spectacular. A+ . Thank you for your time and effort.
I just found you after reading your excellent article on Makers in the July 2018 issue of FDMC. Man, you expressed my exact same journey of acceptance of the Maker movement coming from a lifetime of professional woodworking. Thanks for sharing and you’ve gained a sub. Scott
thanks for touching base
Thanks, Great job! I have been wondering how veneer is made, you have done a great job of showing the whole process in a very short time. I know it took you a lot longer and a lot more work to put this video together so thanks again. I really needed to know.
thanks
Great video Scott, fascinating, and nicely narrated. Cheers, Jim
I cut timber for a living and we sell veneer to buyers that buy for these type of mills and ive always wanted to see the process. Truly amazing..
Pretty cool. Always like seeing the behind the scenes stuff like this
Hey its Guy's woodshop!
Wow, only part way through and I'll already never look at a piece of veneer the same. That vacuum slicer is mega!
Wow! Very impressive!
Manufacturer processes are very satisfying to watch and understand . Thank you for sharing that Scott .
Glad you enjoyed it
Fantastic video scott
I worked at The Freeman Corporation in winchester ky and it was a little bigger mill but same type of processes. They are the biggest or 1 of the biggest veneer mills in the country and it is truly amazing to have been an employee there for 4 years. Amazing machinery and just impressive to watch.
never gets old. I've toured one in KY, Datewiser I think
Nice video, I use a lot of veneer in my shop. I didn't know they made it like that. Thanks
Glad to help
Another really informative video, Scott.
Glad you enjoyed it
fantasitc video, thank you for sharing!
This is such a great video! Thanks Scott!
Glad you liked it!
VERY impressive! This is BIG SCALE. Wow.
thanks
Thank you for let me learn this information, the technology is more advantage than my city, we are a Plywood machinery factory in China
Our pleasure!
this is some good information, love you:)
Glad you enjoyed it.
what a treat. thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
I enjoyed it. Thank you!
So glad!
Excellent video, subbed
Much appreciated!
I wish I could like this video 10 times. That's was great!
thanks, your comments are encouraging
Excellent video i worked in Architectual Woodworking for over 20 years and never got to tour one of the veneer plants but always heard the oh we are waiting on the plant in so and so to ship the correct ones the client selected i knew that it was always limited to only a few places that cut the species we needed After seeing the tremendous operation and size of the machinery. I can understand why its such a limited. Amount of facilities i seem to recall that most of the products came from the Carolinas as a rule ? I guess that is why. Many furniture making is done there as well
This is quite a process. A day's worth of the burn pile pieces would last me for a lifetime.
right! took everything I had not to stuff my bag with scrape.
I bet that place smells amazing.
it was pretty good
Another Amazing Video! Thank you. 🇦🇺👴🏻
Thanks,.amazing process
Very interesting activity.
I wonder how this activity is sustainable. In the beginning, I saw very thick trees so I thought that they take so many years to grow.
they are re-planting and can make veneer from thinner trees. At least with veneer they are getting a better yield with the wood. x 42 with minimal waste
Thank you
You're welcome
I enjoyed learning about this process. At 10:08 content ends?
Cool video.
Thanks for the visit
Crazy! I can't even do a tomato with a mandoline on my kitchen counter, and these guys are doing full trees.
You can do it!
This is one process where there doesn’t exist a diy equivalent.
Actually I've done it, not worth the time for sure. I should video it thou.
@@imaginegrove Really?! That would be cool to see!
There are no places to get veneer in my area, so I have often thought about ways to make it myself, but ended up dismissing the idea every time. I can’t really imagine how to achieve a decent result.
FANTASTICO
thanks, it was very cool to see in person
Soul destroying job!
Very informative video! Good job.
Sir i have small wood slicing factory. Im facing an issue that is when i cooked ash log for softening it turns black and results veneer wasting. Can you help me with it please. Thanks
sorry I can't help you with this level for the process. might be the water, temperature or contaminated logs.
Good stuff, thanks Scott. FYI - a lot of black at the end. Cheers, David
hmmm, thanks for the heads up. not sure what happened. wonder if I can swap this out?
I wouldn't be too concerned, maybe just a note in the notes as some people may be expecting you to do some of your crazy stunts at the end!
Is it possible to know the chemicals used in industrial wood veneer coloring?
And how to put it on the slide
If possible, a video demonstrates that
Thank you
I could do that, down the road for sure
Hi. At the end of the video a guy is making a horn structure. Is there any chance to see that video? Would you have a link?
That was me, I don't have a video on making that and sorry I don't have a video on making that piece.
I didn't know there was so much veneer produced.
Veneer gets you more out of the log and allows you to make wide panels and sheets with the help of a plywood backing (mdf is a waste of veneer). It also allows you to get use able decorative material from smaller logs from plantations with short growth cycles for the species - and thus with narrow heartwood diameter - if radially cut, for example. Also allows you to use wood that shrinks significantly in drying and thus doesn't produce use able timber. In India we have a tree called "neem" and the wood can be classy and inoffensive or it can be downright beautiful as neem has a high tendency to form burl. Problem is that it shrinks by like 12-17 percent volumetrically. Such a shame for such an insect resistant wood. Well, worry not! You can make highly stable veneer! Slicing it into sheets favorably directs shrinkage in a manner that doesn't result in too much cracking. Obviously, there's a lot I'm leaving out. Things like the degree of interlocking of the grain and shrinkage properties affect the possibility and ultimate thickness of what you cut and with what rate of success, but engineerd lumber has, for example, allowed someone like me to have equally good looking library wood panels that would cost factors more if made of edge-joined sawn lumber. Also eliminates the redundancy of heavy timber where it isn't of any structural importance. Reduces dead load on your house ect. I'm sorry for rambling, I'm just very impressed by your veneer plywood processing and manufacturing installations. I'm honestly surprised they aren't the subject of more interest.
yes
You need to come to danzer veneer in Williamsport pa we can show you how good veneer is cut ask for Lou
I'd love to. I am in Rochester, NY and could easily make the drive. Can you make this happen?
Can anyone tell me why there is 6 minutes of black screen at the end of the video ?
suspect it is editor error. me. sorry for that
I work in veneer all my life
nice - nothing new here then. love the stuff
do you sell a full size sheet 4 foot by 8 feet walnut veneer?
Not really, you can get it at Rockler, although it would have a PSA backing. Lay one up yourself, go for it. Check out my Veneer Me Crazy! Series imaginewoodworking.com/ where I show you how.

Love to visit your side of the world some day.
Does this factory produce reconstituted veneer?
no
I purchase veneer for my hobbies, however, I never knew there was so much to it, and obviously 🙄 why it is so expensive, right?🇨🇦ON. Paul
Do they make 0.50mm thin?
Western cut is typically 1/42" (.024" thick)
@@imaginegrove they're so thin!!
Yes, in Europe it is 0.5mm to 0.6mm, but some goes as low as 0.3mm
What is the name of this company?
veneer tec
I need a job 😞
יפה מאוד
אבל מה קורה מדקה 10:10 ועד לסוף הסרטון? (לא רואים כלום)
I'd need a translation on this
@@imaginegrove Very nice!
I would love to know what happens from 10:10 until the end of the video. I just do not see or hear anything
I work in pasting veneer woods
like to see some of your work.
