Veneer Slicing Methods Rift-Cut Veneer uses various species of oak. The rift, or comb-grain effect, is obtained by slicing slightly across the medullary rays. This accentuates the vertical grain and minimized the flake. Rift- cut veneers are more expensive due to lower yield from the log. Quarter-Sliced Veneer uses the same cutting method as plain- sliced veneer, except the log is cut into quarters prior to slicing. This method bisects annual growth rings and results in a straight grain or ribbon-striped (mahogany) appearance. Due to low yield from the log, this veneer is usually more costly. This method with oak produces “flake” or “tiger” oak. Plain-Sliced Veneer is the most widely used in architectural doors. It is manufactured by advancing a half log against a stationary knife in an up-and-down movement. The resulting cut is characterized by straight grain intermixed with cathedrals. This method is moderately priced and is available for most wood species. Rotary-Cut Veneer is manufactured by advancing a rotating log against a stationary knife. Since this cut follows the log's annual growth rings, a wide, bold grain pattern is produced. Rotary cut veneer is a cost effective method to obtain remarkable effects from birch, maple and oak.
Veneer Slicing Methods Half-Round Slicing is achieved by cutting on an arc roughly parallel to the centre of the log this creates a wider more open grain pattern and greater leaf width. This method is typically used for exotic highly figured woods
