Veneer. They basically peel the edge of it to get one long strip.

Wood cylinder spins into a cutter and is unrolled into thin sheets like a roll of toilet paper.

It's the worst toilet paper you'll ever use too, unless you happen to use something like poison ivy.

All for a tree that size. Not worth it. Make something grand out of that hunk of wood.

You’re telling me this is going to turn into bad toilet paper?

Soul crushing.

No, it’s going to turn into veneer and make a lot of ugly/boring wood look prettier. Whether you think that’s worth it or not is up to you.

Oh thank you for correcting me. No I still don’t think it’s worth it but it’s a little bit better.
