Title: Grinding customer wood into veneers?
Post by: Biathlonman on December 28, 2015, 08:34:00 PM

Was just tossing around the idea of having a gun stock blank I've had for years cut/ground into bow veneers.  Is that something one of our sponsors does?  I don't have any builds in mind really or would have the Bowyer do it, just thought it would be fun to have a stack of veneers around for future projects.

Troy breeding might be the guy.
Some day I will grind my own but for me his price is decent and I never had to wait very long for them either.

I've got an email into him.  He's only an hour or so from my folks so that would be nice to save on shipping.  Any other thoughts out there?

I'll do it. We cut thousands of veneers.

Jim - Do you cut tapered lams?
