Veneer Types offered at Darlington Veneer Company:
| ROTARY |
 |
The log is mounted in a lath and turned against the knife much like unwinding a roll of paper |
 |
| QUARTER SLICED |
 |
The log is mounted so that the knife cuts the growth rings at right angles, producing a straight grain appearance |
 |
| RIFT CUT |
 |
Rift cut veneer is produced in various species of oak. By cutting at a slight angle off quarter, the flake figure of the medullary rays are avoided |
 |
| PLAIN SLICED (flat cut) |
 |
The half log or flatch is mounted so that the cut is parallel to the growth rings. This type of cut produces a cathedral figure |
 |
| HALF-ROUND SLICED |
 |
This method of cutting is on an arc roughly parallel to the center of the log |
