I thought I'd give another wood a try for veneers. I've always been a huge fan of quarter sawn white oak with the wray flakes in my furniture making.

I've had request for sometime now about American Elm. Well here it is. The feathering between the anual growth rigs is better on the ends than in the middle, but still they really look great. Used natural or dyed, these veneers will make your next bow a show stopper.

Ameriacn Elm
1-3/4" x 36" x .030"
$20.00 for a set of four veneer or $10.00 for the single pair.

I almost scrapped this piece of wood until I took another look at it.

There is a small check on two of the veneers, but place the checks to the tip end of the limb and I doubt they will ever be a problem. I wouldn't think twice about not using them in a bow.

A close up showing the checks. It also shows the great feather grain inside the annual growth rings.

At Times I get material that is intended for veneers. When the pattern doesn't work out as intended I make it into parallel laminations. As you can see in the pic the feathering between the anual growth rings of this American Elm is very short and only slightly shows on one side.

American Elm Parallel laminations
1-3/4" x 36"
1 pr. in .030", 1pr. in .035" and 2 pr. in .040"
$8.00 per pair plus shipping in the CUS only

 

As stated in this thread several times, any veneers or laminations you see in the 1-3/4" width can easily be reduced to 1-1/2". I'll gladly do it at "no charge" if you need 1-1/2" pieces.

Sets #3 thru #7 have more consistency in the feathering grain between the annual growth rings along the length of the veneer.

If your not a whitewood fan, a little dye can totally change the look. I'll be happy to work out something with you on dyeing any of the whitewood veneers I offer with one of the colors of dye I use.

I have three pairs of the American Elm veneers. Two pair of these can be used together to make a full set. Used plain or dyed they will make any bow stand out.

I worked up these highly figured American Elm veneers. If your looking for something that really pops under clear glass this might be the trick.

Failed to number these:
The set of four veneers is #8
The pair is #4

Did a little digging through my stack of material and ran across a couple pieces of Coffee Wood.

To give you an idea of what it would look like under glass I took a scrape piece and wiped it with denatured alcohol.

Don't forget, I can reduce any of the 1-3/4" veneers or laminations to 1-1/2" at "No Charge to you".
